Energy Dept Picks Iowa Firms to Develop Biofuels for Military

The U.S. Energy Department said on Monday it would invest more than $10.5 million in two Iowa companies to help spur the development of advanced biofuels. 

The DOE said it awarded $4.2 million to Frontline BioEnergy in Ames and $6.4 million to BioProcess Algae in Shenandoah to develop pilot-scale biorefineries that would be used to test renewable biofuels for use in cars, trucks, and planes while also meeting military specifications for jets and ships in the American military.
