The Feedstock-Conversion Interface Consortium - Understanding and Mitigating the Impacts of Feedstock Variability in Bioconversion Processes

The Feedstock-Conversion Interface Consortium is led by DOE as a collaborative effort among researchers from 9 National Laboratories. The FCIC was formed because biomass feedstock properties are variable and different from other commodities, and empirical approaches to address these issues have been unsuccessful. The FCIC uses first-principles-based science to de-risk biorefinery scale-up and deployment by understanding and mitigating the impacts of feedstock variability on bioenergy conversion processes. In this presentation, we present a brief overview of key FCIC prinicples and recent results.

FCIC Task X - Project Management and Consortium Overview

The objective of the FCIC Program Management Task is to provide scientific direction and leadership to the nine participating labs, and to provide robust project management to ensure robust operational planning and execution. The FCIC directly supports the BETO portfolio by focusing on feedstock variability across the bioenergy value chain, and the Project Management Task ensures the smooth operation of the FCIC, making sure that the 9 independent projects with different objectives have a common focus - understanding and mitigating the impacts of feedstock variability across the value chain.
