Coverage of Biofuel Discovery
Two websites ran stories about the findings of UMaine engineer Clay Wheeler, who has discovered a relatively simple pathway to take wood and convert it into biofuel. BioRefining Magazine noted that the process removes most of the oxygen from the oil, a key step that distinguishes Wheeler’s process from other methods. The website Oil Price said the whole of the U.S. transportation system could benefit from the finding.
