BIO Encourages EPA to Speed Approvals of New Biofuel Pathways
2014-03-31 06:00:00| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
BIO responded to EPA's announcement about halting new petitions for renewable fuel pathways for ~6 months. While recognizing EPA's "welcome" effort to improve petition process for new renewable fuel pathways under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), BIO's Brent Erickson commented that review process should be conducted in "a more timely manner." Erickson added that such a "lengthy wait...chills job creation and investment in the sector." This story is related to the following:Green & CleanSearch for suppliers of:

Scientists Discover Bacterial Resistance To Improve Biofuel Production
2014-03-28 21:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: Researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)s Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI), a multi-institutional partnership led by Berkeley Lab, have identified the genetic origins of a microbial resistance to ionic liquids and successfully introduced this resistance into a strain of E. coli bacteria for the production of advanced biofuels. The ionic liquid resistance is based on a pair of genes discovered in a bacterium native to a tropical rainforest in Puerto Rico. We identified two genes in...

U.S. EPA head defends proposed cuts in biofuel target for 2014
2014-03-27 20:27:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: U.S. energy markets cannot absorb the levels of biofuels required by law to be blended into the fuel supply in 2014, Environmental Protection Agency head Gina McCarthy said on Thursday, defending a controversial proposal to slash the target for this year. The EPA is working on final 2014 biofuel use targets after issuing a proposal in November that slashed federal requirements for ethanol in U.S. fuel supplies. Although it is under pressure from the biofuel industry to reverse the move changes,...
