University of California unlocks new method for sustainable biofuel production

With the global energy sector moving towards net zero emissions by 2050, biofuels and other renewable, clean energy sources have taken center stage. Now, researchers from the University of California, Riverside, have discovered a new method to make the most of wood and plant materials, turning them into sustainable liquid fuels and other products.

The newly developed chemical pretreatment can help cost-effective and carbon-neutral next-generation biofuel production.
