| Outline of the workshop |
The purpose of the meeting is to bring
together leading European and international scientists with
research expertise in plant biomass crops, biomass
decomposition and fermentation, and fuel production. Leading
scientists will discuss the current state of the art and
initiate the necessary multidisciplinary networks to tackle
major bottlenecks in the sustainable and economically viable
production of transport fuels from plant biomass. EPSO will
publish a white paper arising from the meeting. This aims to
establish the scientific cohesion and funding potential
necessary for European scientists to make important
contributions to sustainable energy production.
