This project is for the creation of the National Advanced Biofuels Consortium (NABC) that would conduct cutting-edge research to develop infrastructure compatible, fungible "drop-in" biomass-based hydrocarbon fuels. The NABC would develop the technologies necessary to deliver cost-effective processes ready for pilot scale, which would maximize the use of existing refining and distribution infrastructure. The objective would be a sustainable, cost-effective, advanced biofuels processing sequence with high process efficiency and maximum carbon utilization.
