Way to go Co-Director Robert Brown! 👏💡🧠

We recently collaborated with U.S. EPA Heartland Region & IIHR on a conference focused on Anaerobic Digestion on the Farm. During the conference, attendees had the chance to view 3 virtual tours of AD facilities. 👀#ICYMI Watch the playlist now: bit.ly/3NwCFEB

BEI's very own Dr. Robert Brown is an inventor of numerous thermochemical conversions of biomass to biofuels and biochemicals and, Iowa State's ninth fellow elected to the @AcademyofInventors. 🧠🧑‍🔬 Learn more: bit.ly/4aiuDsW📕

BEI's Carbon Removal Team just released footage on their carbon removal project for the XPRIZE Learn about the world of biochar and its incredible potential to revolutionize sustainable agriculture and assist in carbon removal. 📺Tune in now: bit.ly/42tncM3

The Regenerative Ag team Bioeconomy Institute is now hiring a Prairie Postdoc! Are you passionate about driving sustainable agricultural practices & contributing to cutting-edge research in agroecology? Candidates with a strong publication record should apply bit.ly/3wHnanK

#DYK about biochar sequestration? This ancient technique involves converting organic waste into a valuable resource that helps trap carbon in the soil. #Biochar acts as a long-term carbon sink plus it enhances soil fertility!

Energy research update! A team of BEI scientists explore how lignocellulosic biomass can be transformed through biochemical & thermochemical processing to extract sugars. There is the potential to reshape the future of sustainable energy in this recent pub bit.ly/3UX7zdS

BEI co-directors @LSchulteMoore & Dr. Robert Brown lead collaborative research in sustainable bioenergy & biorenewables. Together, their interdisciplinary projects bridge science, industry, and policy, shaping a more resilient bioeconomy. Thank you both for your leadership! 💡🌎

#GettingToGigatonne scale carbon removal will require a diverse portfolio of solutions. We’re proud to present the Top 100 #XPRIZECarbonRemoval teams who represent a new generation of solutions across all carbon removal pathways: air, ocean, land & rocks! xprize.org/prizes/carbonr…

BEI is thrilled to share this piece published in Nature Reviews Chemistry. In a future without waste, carbon will be treated as a precious commodity. Researchers from seven DOE labs highlight opportunities with the "Roadmap to Close the Carbon Cycle." 📕bit.ly/3wjKSqs

Congratulations to Jessica Brown for earning her PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Iowa State University! Not only has she excelled in her studies, but her research on biochar and pyrolysis have been groundbreaking. We can't wait to see the amazing things you'll accomplish!👩‍🎓🌟

📢We're expanding our team! Candidates with a background in proposal preparation, grants administration, and project management are encouraged to apply. ✔️Applications close tomorrow!: bit.ly/3wSlNTN

#FAQ: What is biomass? Biomass is organic material from plants and animals which can be used as a renewable energy source. BEI studies biomass to develop sustainable solutions for energy, fuels & chemicals, thereby driving innovation for a more climate-smart future.

#FAQ: What does biochar do? Biochar is typically made from wood, but our researchers have found that using corn stover biomass can bring forth various strengths from the char. The researchers studying Iowa-made biochar were recently awarded an XPRIZE Carbon Removal Phase 2 team.

📢We’re expanding our team at the Bioeconomy Institute! 💹💰💵Candidates with budgeting, contracts, and accounting experience are encouraged to apply for our Grants Specialist II position. Apply today: bit.ly/3Y0Cis8 #NowHiring #ApplyNow #IowaState

Cyclones make an impact around the world! 🌍🐦 This week @LSchulteMoore & Dr. Walter Suza received international recognition for their trailblazing agri-food research from the World Food Prize Foundation. They join a global cohort of 36 other changemakers!

Ongoing research and outreach aim to gather and publish more data about winter crops and prairie as fodder for digesters.

Congratulations to the new 2024 AAAS Fellows class! They are a distinguished cadre recognized for their achievements across disciplines, including research, and teaching. aaas.org/news/aaas-welc…
