A list of experts and their fields who are involved in the Louisiana Institute for Biofuels and Bioproducts (LIBBi) and links to contact them.

The Louisiana Institute for Biofuels & Bioprocessing (LIBBi) is hosting a conference called LIBBi Summit. The objective of the Summit is to strengthen Louisiana’s agricultural industries and provide a vision for enhancing our state’s profile in emerging biofuels and bioprocessing area. Our overall goal would be for participants to understand what Louisiana can offer in terms of feedstock, scientific research, labor and other resources along with State government incentives.

Research to date has demonstrated the technical applicability of HT processing for a wide range of plant biomass types, including invasive plant species and preservative-treated wood waste, both of which have little or no economic value and represent an environmental and ecological problem. This paper will summarize our results using various plant feedstocks for HT treatment with respect to hydrocarbon yields, chemical composition of semi-volatile mixtures and volume reduction.

The board members for Louisiana Institue for Biofuels and Bioproducts (LIBBi) comprise stakeholders and experts in the field with an arms-length relation to the project participants. The board members provide a global view on the overall impact of the different projects and help to provide regular guidance to the project director.

The Louisiana Institute for Biofuels and Bioprocessing (LIBBi) provides a sound, science-based roadmap to support new biofuels and bioprocessing enterprises in Louisiana. The institute links our state’s agricultural base with emerging bioenergy initiatives, thereby expanding and strengthening local, state and regional economies.

The Louisiana Institute for Biofuels and Bioprocessing (LIBBi) is a research, education and outreach initiative within the LSU AgCenter. Through innovative discovery and strategic industry partnership, the institute provides a science-based road map to support new biofuels and bioprocessing enterprises and to prioritize pathways for mainstream integration of biorefining industries.

The Louisiana Institute for Biofuels and Bioprocessing will be a research, education, and outreach initiative within the LSU Agricultural Center.
