improve overall performance and make renewable liquid transportation fuels sus-
tainable and affordable. A thorough understanding of fundamental issues related to
transport processes and the development of predictive models that integrate heat,
mass and momentum transport are essential to the design, development and imple-
mentation of scale-independent processes. Continued synergism between science
and engineering disciplines along with participation by industry is crucial to the
development of cost-effective alternative motor fuels by 2012 and the significant
displacement of fossil-derived fuels specified by the DOE (Energy Independence
and Security Act of 2007) EISA for 2022. Improvements in process equipment,
