Biofuels program summary: Volume 1, Overview fiscal year 1988
Within the US Department of Energy (DOE), the Biofuels and Municipal Waste Technology Division is working to ensure that the technology for providing economical, plentiful, and renewable supplies of liquid and gaseous fuels will be available when the nation needs them. To this end, research is being pursued on carefully selected pathways leading to the production of renewable gasoline, diesel, and alcohol fuels, as well as pipeline-quality gas. During fiscal year 1988, the National Biofuels program continued to make progress in all areas of research, reinforcing the confidence that the research goals necessary to unlock the energy potential of biofuels are both reasonable and achievable.
