What do economics comparisons of various feedstocks and production imply? What are the critical issues involved in plantation, sourcing, trading and production? What are the new developments in the lignocellulose, waste-to-biofuel and bio-based chemical markets? What latest key R&D and technology commercialization you can leverage on?
