Non-technical descriptionMethods to convert biomass into energy involve burning in the presence of oxygen (combustion), reaction at high temperature with controlled amount of oxygen and /or steam (gasification), and decomposition at elevated temperature in the absence of oxygen (pyrolysis). This project focuses on biomass pyrolysis to produce fuels and biochar and then chemically modify biochar for use in applications related to carbon dioxide capture, water purification, and food production. The project is interdisciplinary and is a collaboration among four institutions (Jackson State University, University of Mississippi, University of Delaware, and the University of Wyoming) in three states. The project aims to diversify the workforce through partnerships with Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) in the region, hiring and mentoring of early career faculty and postdoctoral fellows, and training of graduate and undergraduate students.Technical descriptionUsing solar energy with chemical catalysis and steam pyrolysis, this project aims to produce liquid fuels and value-added biochar from biomass (e.g. corn stover). The goal is to develop technologies for biomass refineries that produce net zero or negative CO2 emission. The project combines experimental work with computations based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) to better understand the thermodynamics, kinetics, and transport in the chemical looping energy production system. The photochemical and ultrasonic chemistry and functionalization of biochar will use graphene related nanostructures and enable technologies for CO2 capture and utilization, water purification, and soil quality improvement. The project is interdisciplinary and addresses science and engineering issues in biomass conversion and will contribute to advances in materials chemistry, heterogeneous catalysis, and reaction theories. Each of the collaborating institutions brings complementary expertise in research and will hire new faculty in the areas related to Food, Energy, and Water. The project seeks to diversify the workforce through partnerships with Minority Serving Institutions in the region, national laboratories, and other national and international institutions.

非技术描述将生物质转化为能源的方法包括在氧气存在下燃烧（燃烧）、在受控量的氧气和/或蒸汽的高温下反应（气化）以及在没有氧气的情况下在高温下分解（热解） 。该项目重点关注生物质热解以生产燃料和生物炭，然后对生物炭进行化学改性，用于与二氧化碳捕获、水净化和食品生产相关的应用。该项目是跨学科的，是三个州的四所机构（杰克逊州立大学、密西西比大学、特拉华大学和怀俄明大学）之间的合作项目。 该项目旨在通过与该地区的少数族裔服务机构 (MSI) 合作、雇用和指导早期职业教师和博士后研究员以及培训研究生和本科生来实现劳动力多元化。技术说明利用太阳能与化学催化和蒸汽热解，该项目旨在利用生物质（例如玉米秸秆）生产液体燃料和增值生物炭。 目标是开发可实现二氧化碳净零排放或负排放的生物质精炼技术。 该项目将实验工作与基于密度泛函理论 (DFT) 的计算相结合，以更好地理解化学循环能源生产系统中的热力学、动力学和传输。生物炭的光化学和超声波化学以及功能化将使用石墨烯相关的纳米结构，并实现二氧化碳捕获和利用、水净化和土壤质量改善等技术。 该项目是跨学科的，解决生物质转化中的科学和工程问题，并将有助于材料化学、多相催化和反应理论的进步。每个合作机构都带来了互补的研究专业知识，并将聘请食品、能源和水相关领域的新教师。该项目旨在通过与该地区的少数民族服务机构、国家实验室以及其他国家和国际机构合作，实现劳动力多元化。
