NREL’s sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from wet waste is produced using catalysts that build energy-dense hydrocarbons out of volatile fatty acids—made by fermenting wet waste in anaerobic digesters. The resulting SAF is compatible with existing jet engin
The U.S. Department of Energy’s Bioenergy Technologies Office, in partnership with the Algae Foundation and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, are announcing the launch of the AlgaePrize 2023-2025 Competition, which challenges students to become
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has released a Request for Information (RFI) to better understand the challenges facing critical elements within Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) supply chains.
The Bioenergy Research and Education Bridge (BRIDGES) Program is partnering with the National Association of Biology Teachers (NABT) to host the BRIDGES Bioenergy 101 webinar at 6 pm (ET) on Thursday, October 5, 2023, to introduce educators to bioenergy..
Despite millions of Americans depositing their plastic waste into recycling bins, much of that waste, including flexible films, multilayer materials, and colored plastics, cannot be recycled cost-effectively. In fact, only 9% of plastics in the U.S...
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) awarded $23.6 million in funding to eight university and industry projects to develop biomass feedstocks to produce affordable biofuels and bioproducts that reduce greenhouse gas (GH
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) is excited to announce the winning teams for the Wood Heater Design Challenge (WHDC), offering a total of $120,000 in prize funds. Congratulations to Davidon Industries from Warwick,
Join the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) to celebrate #STEMtember and highlight the importance of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education!
In the world of biofuels over the past decade, the eyes of industry have increasingly focused on the potential for domestic microalgae to provide alternative energy with reduced carbon emissions. However, to use these tiny aquatic organisms commercially..
Funded through a collaboration between the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) and the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), three new projects were selected to help accelerate innovation and develop new biomanufacturing
