The proposed program is a continuation of Dr. Rehmann’s previous (and first) NSERC Discovery grant, which had focused on the production of biobutanol, a second-generation biofuel. It builds on experience in biomass processing, fermentation design, high-throughput screening and scale-up related research and development and can take advantage of state-of-the-art research infrastructure. The proposed program addresses the need for the industrial production of biofuels from lignocellulosic biomass in a true biorefinery approach, maximizing the value of biomass by producing a vast flexible array of useful products, easily integratable into current production processes. Lignocellulosic biomass is composed mainly of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin, all of which have to be utilized in order to produce economically viable products.

该计划是Republmann博士之前（也是第一次）NSERC发现基金的延续，该基金专注于生产第二代生物燃料生物丁醇。它建立在生物质加工，发酵设计，高通量筛选和扩大相关研发的经验基础上，并可以利用最先进的研究基础设施。拟议的计划解决了在真正的生物炼制方法中从木质纤维素生物质工业生产生物燃料的需求，通过生产大量灵活的有用产品来最大限度地提高生物质的价值，易于集成到当前的生产过程中。木质纤维素生物质主要由纤维素、半纤维素和木质素组成，所有这些都必须被利用以生产经济上可行的产品。
