July 30, 2004Biofuels Workshop & Trade Show: Western & Pacific Region to be held in Sacramento The Biofuels Workshop & Trade Show will be the first ever regional conference to focus on near-term development of commercial-scale ethanol and biodiesel production and use. The Biofuels Workshop & Trade Show will present technical industry information for the production and operations of a biofuel facility through plenary sessions, concurrent breakout workshops, and an industry trade show.
The main objectives are:
- To aid the development of a biofuels industry in the western region of the United States and Pacific Rim countries. These areas have some unique challenges and opportunities unlike the traditional crop-based Midwest biofuels industry.
- To provide meaningful and near-term or commercial viable information and expertise that targets the development of a biofuels industry in Western United States and Pacific Rim countries.
- To bring together the key people influential to the development of the biofuels industries.
- To exchange information that stimulates viable ideas and action steps.
- To offer solid, reliable technology and advice options, face-to-face, through experienced suppliers and consultants.
- To identify the areas of need that require further attention as part of the path forward.
