Butanol production from switchgrass using novel strains of Clostridium beijerinckii
(2020-05)
Biobutanol is a promising fuel that can be blended with gasoline and improve its octane number. Biobutanol has been produced from corn starch and molasses via acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation. However, the increase ...

In this study IMPLAN 2009 economic data, CEDA 4.41 environmental data and other data sources are used to determine the economic and environmental impact associated with switchgrass based ethanol production in Oklahoma. The ...
Developing a Budget to Plant, Harvest, and Transport Switchgrass
(Oklahoma State University, 2009-12-01)
If there is any hope of moving away from fossil fuels, and towards renewable alternatives, a comprehensive economics analysis of the problem must be performed. This study is the first step in a larger economic analysis ...
Study of the diversity, inbreeding potential, and sward heritability of switchgrass
(2011-12)
Scope and Method of Study: Study the diversity of 56 genotypes of switchgrass from different regions of the US using AFLP. Study the heritability of two populations of Switchgrass (SL-93 C2 and NL-94 C2 ) in swards. ...
Carbon Stocks in Perennial Biofuel Feedstock Management Systems
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-12-01)
Demand for alternatives to fossil fuels and the desire to mitigate CO<sub>2<sub> emissions has driven interest in cellulosic biofuel and methods of sequestering carbon (C). Perennial grasses have the potential to meet both ...
