Biochemical Conversion of Herbaceous Biomass to Renewable Diesel: Biorefinery Marginal Air Quality Impacts and Comparison to Feedstock Production

Summary

This research assesses the potential air quality impacts of advanced biorefineries converting herbaceous biomass into renewable diesel, focusing on compliance with PM2.5 standards and comparing emissions from feedstock production versus the biorefinery itself. The study examines various scales and locations for these facilities in Iowa, generating 26 scenarios. The research report itself is completed, providing an analysis of these future sustainability aspects.
