One thing that's important to me about these stories is that we see
too much outright dismissal of consideration of using biomass as fuel,
because some folks are offended by the idea that we spent millenia
trying to grow enough food to feed ourselves, and then we think we are
in a rush now to go out and use that food not only for feed but to fix
all of our energy shortfalls.

But I think there are better ways to look at the arguments for better
biomass use, and one of them certainly has to be that "waste", which
would otherwise have been thrown away or processed inefficiently, can
be used to great advantage and economic profit.  Observe how the
"commoditization" of Hydrogen allows for a tangible calculation as to
the benefit to be had of making the effort to follow up on this
research and implement the technology.  Also, I was glad to see that
Methane gas can be recovered and used from the process.  Hydrogen is
not the only game on the block despite the efforts to over-simplify to
that point.
