The Digest’s 2022 Multi-Slide Guide to Next Generation Logistics Systems for Delivering Optimal Biomass Feedstocks

This continuing Project with DOE BETO regarding improved logistics builds on advances in two previous High Tonnage projects (Pine at AU; Switchgrass at Genera). The project goal is to evaluate a state-of-the-art biomass merchandizing and processing system to identify sources of variation along the supply chain of multiple, high-impact biomass sources, and to develop practices to reduce biomass variability that lowers the cost of producing a hydrocarbon biofuel. Timothy Rials of the University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture leads a team of researchers.
