Anaerobic Digestion and Hot Water Pretreatment of Tropically Grown C<sub>4</sub> Energy Grasses: Mass, Carbon, and Energy Conversions from Field Biomass to Fuels

Anaerobic Digestion and Hot Water Pretreatment of Tropically Grown C<sub>4</sub> Energy Grasses: Mass, Carbon, and Energy Conversions from Field Biomass to Fuels

The efficacy of C<sub>4</sub> grasses as feedstocks for liquid fuel production and their climate mitigation potential remain unresolved in the tropics. To identify highly convertible C<sub>4</sub> grasses, we measured final fuels and postprocess biomass produced in two labora...
