近日，受Frontiers in Energy Research主编邀请，热能工程学院李辉副教授担任该期刊客座编辑，并以“High-performance Catalytic Processes for Biofuel Production”为主题进行了专刊编辑工作，该主题围绕催化剂在生物燃料生产中的应用研究，主要包含八个方面的研究方向：

• Bio-oil production via catalytic fast pyrolysis;

• Syngas production via catalytic gasification;

• Biodiesel production via catalyzed esterification/transesterification;

• Catalytic tar cracking during biomass catalytic pyrolysis/gasification;

• Solid bio-char or activated carbon production from biomass catalytic conversion;

• Catalytic bio-oil production from biomass syngas;

• Design of new reactors for high-performance catalytic biofuel production, process optimization and life cycle assessment；

• Jet fuel production from catalytic biomass degradation.
