WSU working on developing biofuels from oilseeds

Making aviation biofuels from non-food crops is the goal of a new Department of Energy-funded project that includes significant contributions from Washington State University. WSU’s portion of the five-year, $12.8 million grant totals just over $1.1 million.  The grant is part of a larger DOE project that is providing $178 million to advance bioenergy technology.
