ICES and IHI join forces to produce biofuels and value-added chemicals

A collaborative research project in Singapore will be undertaken by The Institute of Chemical and Engineering Sciences (ICES), a research institute of The Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), and IHI Corporation (IHI). The collaboration will be in the areas of environmental and energy-related technologies. The joint project is aimed at developing a catalytic process that will convert gas derived from fossil fuels into biofuels and value-added chemicals which will be used as feedstock. (December 2, 2011)
