The biomass industry looks to the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) for solutions when it comes to lignocellulosic conversion of biomass to fuels. CELLULOSE editors recently announced that three NREL papers were in the top 10 for most requested articles of 2010.

"These heavily cited papers highlight the impact that NREL researchers are having on the bio-fuel and bio-chemical research, development and deployment communities," NREL Deputy Laboratory Director for Science and Technology Dana Christensen said. "NREL’s work reflects the importance of translating fundamental science advances into meaningful, commercially viable applications that offer substantial economic and environmental benefits."
