Abstract

There is a resurgence of interest in abundant, renewable, biomass resources as precursors for the production of polymeric materials, organic chemicals, and fuel. This heightened awareness and sense of urgency toward biomass utilization is driven by 1) environmental concerns, and the need for environmentally compatible polymers and chemicals. 2) the need to be weaned away from our dependance on non renewable imported petroleum feedstocks, and 3) utilization of the nation's abundant, renewable agricultural feedstocks in new non-food, non-feed uses.
