Make like a tree and leaf

An article on Cleantechnica.com, a Web site devoted to publicizing environmentally friendly forms of power, quoted retired UGA Faculty of Engineering member Tom Adams in an article about the UGA Research Foundation’s development of an innovative way to turn dead trees into a liquid fuel.

“Fuel produced through this efficient technology, which uses dead biomass as the starting material, holds the promise of being highly economical, carbon-negative and environmentally acceptable,” said Adams, who is now an engineering consultant.
