VLS: Great Inventions That Changed The World

AIChE Webinar
Mar 28, 2013
James Wei

You will not only learn about inventions and inventors, but also the impact they have had on our lives and the society and environment in which we live today.

From Wet Algae to Liquid Fuels

Mar 20, 2013
Phillip Savage

The presentation provides some general background on biofuels and on the use of algae as a biomass source for making liquid fuels. The presentation focuses on R&D efforts related to processing algae in its wet state, which eliminates an energy intensive drying step.
