Special Topics (MONDAY AFTERNOON, April 29, 2002)
Discussion Groups (2:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.)
I. Special Topic on Educational Needs for a Biobased Economy. The goals of this workshop are: (1) to solicit input from industry on training needs to retrofit existing employees and to prepare new employees for jobs in the BPI; (2) to discuss new educational models being used, including Internet course offerings and multidisciplinary training programs; and (3) to discuss new opportunities for university-lab-industry interactions in support of a biobased economy.
Chair: R. Mark Worden, Michigan State University
-----------------
II.
Special Topic: The International Energy Agency (IEA) Bioenergy Program
on Biofuels. The International Energy Agency (IEA)
Bioenergy Program on Biofuels currently has ten member countries
participating in the network. Several of the member countries are
approaching Demonstration of the Biomass-to-Ethanol process and may have a
range of more fundamental projects which look at various aspects of
pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, fermentation, and lignin utilization.
Presenters from several of the participating countries will describe their
country’s biomass-to-ethanol projects, and differential factors such as the
type of biomass available, the maturity of the wood or agricultural
processing industry, and the willingness of government to bear the risk/cost
of development and demonstration will be discussed by the panel members
after their collective presentations.
Chairs: Jack Saddler and David Gregg, University of British Columbia
