Upstream, midstream, downstream. Terms of art in oil and gas refining — less common in bioenergy. They correspond to feedstocks, processing, and the distribution systems and engine technologies.
In bioenergy, most attention is showered on the feedstocks and the processing technologies. The downstream is overlooked — yet it is in the pipeline and in the engine that the “fuel meets the fire”. Let’s take a look at some downstream challenges and the innovative downstream technologies.
Researchers and industry will work together to develop new ways to convert biological feedstock into energy and other valuable resources, using biorefinery technology.
