The DOE hopes that this facility, in conjunction with the Bioenergy Research Centers, will put the United States on a fast track to a clean, renewable replacement for gasoline that will eventually be integrated with today's engines and infrastructures.

The facility is "one of the country's deans of biofuels research," said Harvey Blanch, the principal investigator of the ABPDU. "With the opening of the ABPDU, we have vastly improved our capacity to test new innovative approaches to the production of advanced biofuels on a larger, integrated scale."
