Another network in the works for ICFAR

Tue, 12/20/2011

Following expert review of a submitted letter of intent, NSERC has invited a national team of researchers led by ICFAR's Franco Berruti to submit a full proposal for an NSERC Strategic Network. The theme of the research is the production and utilization of biochar, biocarbon, biocoal and biocoke.  The proposal is due in early April, and will involve academics, industry and government partners.  We wish to extend our sincere thanks to the overwhelming support from industry during the letter of intent stage, and we look forward to working with this multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional team to catalyze Canada's bioeconomy and environmental sustainability using the solid bioproducts resulting from thermochemical conversion processes.
