Jag....Looks to me like they are talking about this particular system. Don't see a mention of any industry-wide technology.
Expected outcomes are innovative, integrated technology to reduce size and separate crop residues and dedicated biomass crops in on-the-go harvesters and stationary units.The systematic approach with university/government research infrastructure and an equipment manufacturer is expected to rapidly lead to a commercialized system and useful understandings for other biomass processing efforts. Expected benefits of an integrated system by 2010 are $1 billion/y savings in physical processing energy and improved wet conversion processes with targeted feedstock streams. Environmental benefits include recycling of non-target plant parts on soil. The project is a critical link between biomass producers and users.
