Multi-criteria lifecycle evaluation of transportation fuels derived from biomass gasification
… in the first decade of the 21st century. Cellulosic biofuels have been identified as the primary candidate for meeting long term sustainability and energy security goals. In this thesis potential cellulosic biofuels produced via thermochemical processing are analyzed. Thermochemical …

Improving advanced biofuels production in Saccharomyces cerevisiae via protein engineering and synthetic biology approaches
… production of fuels and chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass. However, we are still encountering several challenges to achieve cost-effective production of cellulosic biofuels, such as the sequential utilization of sugar mixtures caused by glucose repression and the low efficiency of …

Direct and Indirect Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Biomass Storage: Implications for Life Cycle Assessment of Biofuels
<p>Ethanol and other biofuels from cellulosic feedstocks are currently the most promising candidates to replace a large fraction of gasoline consumption in the United States and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Gaps in current approaches to estimating the net greenhouse gas emissions from …

Perennial grasses as sustainable bioenergy crops for marginal lands
… mandated the annual use of 136 billion liters of biofuels by 2022. Of the 136 billion liters, 61 billion liters should be produced from cellulosic biofuels. This will likely lead to increased production of dedicated energy crops for renewable biofuels. Since an ideal biomass crop should not …

A dynamic analysis of U.S. biofuels policy impact on land use, greenhouse gas emissions and social welfare
Biofuels have been promoted to achieve energy security and as a solution to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the transportation sector. This dissertation presents a framework to examine the extent to which biofuel policies reduce gasoline consumption and GHG emissions and their …
