The use of sustainable lignocellulosic biomass can provide an alternative source of liquid hydrocarbon fuels without impacting the food supply. Fast pyrolysis and subsequent catalytic hydroprocessing can produce infrastructure compatible fuels from lignocellulosic feedstocks. Recent results in the CRADA project involving UOP LLC, PNNL and NREL have demonstrated an economically viable process in laboratory scale tests.
