Abstract

These days, you don’t have to go far to hear a little something about renewable power. And in the Tri-Cities, you needn’t look beyond your own backyard. At the Bioproducts, Sciences, and Engineering Laboratory--BSEL--on Washington State University’s Richland campus, scientists are doing some cutting edge research on the conversion of biomass to fuels and value-added products that are traditionally derived from petroleum. The facility, built by the State of Washington, houses scientists from both Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and WSU Tri-Cities.
