Waste-to-Energy (WtE) technologies offer the promise of diverting organic wastes, including wastewater sludge, livestock waste, and food waste, for beneficial energy use while reducing the quantities of waste that are disposed or released to the envi

U.S. municipal wastewater contains approximately 160 trillion Btu/y of influent chemical energy, but very little is recovered and utilized nationwide. Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is a thermochemical process that converts biomass into a biocrude i

We present a model-based assessment of alternative cultivation strategies for open pond algal biomass production within the conterminous United States (CONUS). Our assessment focuses on two basic cultivation strategies: (1) seasonal rotation of three

There is an inextricable link between energy production and food/feed/fiber cultivation with available water resources. Currently in the United States, agriculture represents the largest sector of consumptive water use making up 80.7 % of the total.

A warm sunny climate and unoccupied arid land as in the American Southwest are favorable for algal cultivation. However, additional resource constraints affect the overall viability of specific sites and regions. We investigated tradeoffs between gro

Successful development of a large-scale microalgae-based biofuels industry requires comprehensive analysis and understanding of the feedstock supply chain—from facility siting and design through processing and upgrading of the feedstock to a fuel p

Algae's high productivity provides potential resource advantages over other fuel crops. However, demand for land, water, and nutrients must be minimized to avoid impacts on food production. We apply our national-scale open-pond, growth, and resource

Within the United States and Puerto Rico, publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) process 130.5 Gl/d (34.5 Bgal/d) of wastewater, producing sludge as a waste product. Emerging technologies offer novel waste-to-energy pathways through whole sludge conv
