Biomass to Brilliance: Engineering a Greener Future – Paper Science and Engineering
High School | Summer (June-August) | Residential
This week-long residential camp for rising 11th- and 12th-grade students combines engaging presentations with exciting hands-on activities involving the creation, evaluation and life cycle of sustainable and renewable products. Examples include generating green electrical energy and biofuels using biomass and cellulosic ethanol; working with biomaterials of the future, such as printed electronics; using surface chemistry to separate ink from paper fibers when recycling paper and making bioplastics or gels using plant materials instead of oil.
