Comparative Studies on the Carbohydrate Composition of Marine Macroalgae: Final Technical Report

Sara Havig

    Research output: NRELSubcontract Report

    Abstract

    The purpose of this subcontract is to evaluate carbohydrates from macroalgae common to the Gulf of Mexico. Information from these analyses will be used to provide an indication of the feasibility of fermenting macroalgae to ethanol. Knowledge of the carbohydrates will allow for assessment of required pretreatments and utilization efficiencies in converting algal feedstocks to ethanol.
