Doty Windfuels at the American Chemical Society Conference

Tomorrow I’m renting a car and heading south, through Los Angeles on my way to San Diego, for my work Monday and Tuesday with Doty Windfuels at the American Chemical Society Conference. I mention Los Angeles, as I plan to stop for dinner near the airport with my colleague Marc Rappaport of biofuels fame. Though we’ve spoken on the phone dozens of times about several different projects in the space, this will be the first time I’ll have the pleasure of meeting Marc in person.

Ironically, the core driver of this trip, promoting Doty WindFuels, is rooted in Dr. Doty’s conviction that the entire biofuel industry is flawed, and that synthetic fuels (manufactured with off-peak wind power, water, and CO2) offer the most feasible solution to carbon-neutral energy.

I guess we’ll see how this shakes out.
