NREL and ExxonMobil working to converting wood waste to bio-oil

jlane November 13, 2023

In Colorado, NREL and ExxonMobil scientists and engineers are testing the potential for converting wood waste to bio-oil. If successful, this oil would have the potential to be upgraded into a biofuel we could use in the cars and trucks we drive every day.

So far, they successfully completed small, experimental tests, and the next phase is to move to a pilot demonstration soon. The goal of the pilot is to prove the concept works and provide more data to one day move to the commercial phase, and potentially transform transportation.
