The U.S. Department of Energy Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) awarded $2.18 million in funding to three projects as part of the 2023 Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) Call by the Feedstock-Conversion Interface Consortium (FCIC). Funded and led by BETO, the FCIC is a consortium of researchers at nine national laboratories dedicated to reducing the risk of biorefinery scale-up.
Partnering laboratory researchers will collaborate with award recipients to understand, quantify, and mitigate the risk impact of feedstock variability across the bioenergy and bioproduct value chains. The following projects were selected:
