Converting lignin from biomass, whether from wood, corn or other agricultural waste, is a promising route for developing synthetic fuels to substitute for petroleum, coal and other non-renewable sources. MPC-CMSE Summer Scholar Richard B. [Ben] Canty worked in Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering Yuriy Román's lab on cobalt catalysts to convert lignin oligomers rich in carbon-carbon bonds into simpler chemicals and fuels.Summer Scholar internships are supported in part by NSF’s Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers (MRSEC) program.
