Agriculture and Food Research Initiative - Sustainable Bioenergy
This AFRI Challenge Area focuses on the priority to secure America's energy future. It supports the development of regional systems for the sustainable production of bioenergy and biobased products that contribute significantly to reducing dependence on foreign oil, have net positive social, environmental, and rural economic impacts, and are compatible with existing agricultural systems. The long-term outcome for this program is to implement regional systems that materially deliver liquid transportation biofuels to help meet the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 goal of 36 billion gallons/year of biofuels by 2022 and reduce the National dependence on foreign oil.

Create a regional system for producing advanced transportation fuels derived from perennial grasses grown on land that is either unsuitable or marginal for row crop production.
Improve the sustainability of existing cropping systems by reducing agricultural runoff of nutrients and soil and increasing carbon sequestration.

Key Feature: Distributed Processing

Pyrolysis Processing
Rapid thermal decomposition of organic compounds in the absence of oxygen to predominately produce liquid product known as bio-oil.
Fast pyrolysis can be built at small scales suitable for distributed
processing.
Co-product biochar is produced at yields
of 12-20 wt% biomass.
Biochar
Bio-oil is refined like petroleum into synthetic gasoline and biodiesel.
