Wood for Jet Fuel?

Here is the woody biomass jet fuel initiative Hans-Erik Blomgren mentioned at the October committee meeting.

NARA Works to Harness Woody Biomass for Aviation Biofuel

Featuring a broad alliance of private industry and educational institutions, the Northwest Advanced Renewables Alliance (NARA) takes a holistic approach to building a supply chain for aviation biofuel with the goal of increasing efficiency in everything from forestry operations to conversion processes. Using a large variety of feedstocks, from construction waste to forest residues, the project aims to create a sustainable industry to produce aviation biofuels and important co-products.
WSU and others have been getting large grants off of this.

And like pretty much anything these days, you can follow NARA on Twitter:

Thanks, Hans-Erik!
