Reinventing energy

At CCEI we’re developing a range of new catalysts to convert inedible biomass, wood, switchgrass, and other organic waste into sugars and oils that can be used in fuels and chemicals.

FP1

We develop innovative catalytic technologies to efficiently convert biomass, such as trees and grasses, into chemicals and fuels.

FP2

CCEI is led both inside and outside the lab by a diverse, multi-institutional coalition of scientists, scholars, and engineers.

FP3

We pursue an integrated approach to solving scientific and engineering problems that span across scales and disciplines.
