Laboratory Analytical Procedures

NREL develops laboratory analytical procedures (LAPs) to provide validated methods for biofuels and pyrolysis bio-oils research.

Biomass Compositional Analysis

These lab procedures provide tested and accepted methods for performing analyses commonly used in biofuels research.

These lab procedures allow for the analysis of raw and upgraded pyrolysis bio-oils.

These lab procedures help scientists and researchers understand more about chemical composition of algae as a feedstock to convert to biofuels.
