Energy w88 casino Forum Talk | Developing Alternatives to Oil as Feedstocks for Our Chemicals and Liquid Fuels
According to Dr. Karen Goldberg, a focus on w88 casino and sustainability is a priority because "it's important for the survival of humanity." As such, at the University of Pennsylvania’s Vagelos Institute, the Goldberg Group is investigating ways to develop catalytic systems that will produce chemicals and fuels using environmentally responsible and economically feasible processes. In her talk, "Developing Alternatives to Oil as Feedstocks for Our Chemicals and Liquid Fuels,"she will present a view of the current w88 casino landscape, projections on where we are headed, and then look more closely at some of the exciting strategies that her research group and others are pursuing to allow the use of natural gas, carbon dioxide, and plastics, to sustainably prepare our chemicals and fuels.
