Biobutanol Research and Development

In addition to the BP/DuPont and ButylFuel efforts mentioned under Biobutanol Production, biobutanol research and development by other government and industry groups is ongoing.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service is studying biobutanol production as part of its project Cost-Effective Bioprocess Technologies for Production of Biofuels from Lignocellulosic Biomass.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are funding biobutanol research and development as part of their Small Business Innovation Research programs. See the most recent DOE and EPA awards.
Maybe we will be able to get some of this grant money
