SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As stated 

in the Bioenergy Technologies Office’s 

(BETO’s) Multi-Year Program Plan, the 

mission of BETO is to develop and 

transform our renewable biomass 

resources into commercially viable, 

high-performance biofuels, bioproducts, 

and biopower through targeted research, 

development, demonstration, and 

deployment supported through public 

and private partnerships. One of the 

options being pursued by BETO 

involves developing technologies 

capable of producing a bio-oil 

intermediate to be used as a petroleum 

refinery feedstock, leveraging existing 

infrastructure. BETO wants to identify 

the next step(s) in gathering information 

about the physiochemical properties, 

reactivities, and compatibilities of 

intermediates to petroleum refineries. 

Understanding and specifying bio-oil 

intermediate requirements for use in 

petroleum refineries and the limitations 

of the distribution infrastructure are 

critical. The workshop will convene 

university, national laboratory, industry, 

advocacy, government, and other 

stakeholders from both the renewable 

energy and petroleum refining 

industries to discuss the potential for 

bio-oil co-processing, challenges 

currently facing the refining industry, 

and the advantages that could be 

realized in a co-processing partnership. 

Public Participation: Members of the 

public are encouraged to participate in 

open discussion at the workshop. For 

registration information, visit the
