2024 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Biological Conversions and Processes for Renewable Feedstocks

Explore advances in biological conversions and processes for renewable feedstocks. Topics may include production of biofuels and chemicals from biomass and other renewable sources through biochemical and hybrid biochemical-thermochemical conversion pathways. Favor papers demonstrating the sound application of core scientific and engineering principles.
