Catalytic upgrade: Better and cheaper renewable biofuels

New catalysts to remove oxygenated compounds from bio-derived oils may lead to better and cheaper renewable biofuels. Dwindling crude oil reserves, accompanied by rising prices and environmental concerns, have led to increased interest in the use of renewable fuels. Biofuels produced from waste agricultural or forestry material are particularly desirable because they avoid diverting resources from the production of food crops.
