Project Type: Specific Cooperative Agreement

Start Date: Sep 15, 2010
End Date: Sep 14, 2012

Objective:
The objective of this collaborative project is to develop, process, evaluate, and simulate value-added processing operations for low-value biofuels byproducts.

Approach:
1. Physically and chemically modify the material properties of low-value components of various biofuels byproduct streams in order to facilitate their conversion into value-added industrial products. 2. Examine industrial processes (such as injection and compression molding) to convert low-value components of various biofuels byproduct streams into value-added products. 3. Optimize industrial processes (such as injection and compression molding) to convert low-value components of various biofuels byproduct streams into value-added products.
