Researchers at Nanjing Tech University in China have developed a new pathway for the production of liquid hydrocarbon fuels from lignocellulose. Generally, there are several major strategies to convert lignocellulose into liquid hydrocarbon fuels: fast pyrolysis, liquefaction, and gasification followed by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.
