Researchers definitively establish that Miscanthus is 2.4 times more productive than switchgrass in the U.S.

Recent findings show how MSU researchers have designed a surface display system to attach cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, to yeast and other surfaces

Researchers found that they could successfully express the reductase component of the nitrogenase enzyme alone in the bacterium Azotobacter vinelandii and directly use this bacterium to convert CO₂ to CO

ORNL scientists are studying the unique metabolic mechanisms that allow CAM plants to conserve water, with the goal of introducing water-saving traits into bioenergy and food crops

“We are taking the problem and trying to turn it into a solution,” scientist says

Research team combines X-ray source at Berkeley Lab with other tools

“We may have stumbled onto the next green revolution,” said lead author of recent study

The benefits are two-fold: The process removes harmful CO₂ from the atmosphere, and the diesel can be used as an alternative fuel to gasoline

"We've really accelerated hydrothermal conversion technology over the last six years to create a continuous, and scalable process which allows the use of wet wastes like sewage sludge"

Researchers at ORNL uncover the chemical reaction that helps break down biomass for biofuel
