(2013, background): “…and the constant efforts for their optimization, these routes are less prone to commercialization in the immediate future, thereby rendering the thermochemical conversion processes commercially viable, as these rely on processes that have been thoroughly studied over the years (Sims et al. 2010).”
• How should barriers to alternative fuels and vehicles be classified and potential policies to promote innovative technologies be evaluated (2012, background): “Sims et al. (2010) suggest, however, that second generation biofuels will continue to face major constraints to overall commercial deployment due to the logistics of providing a competitive and perennial supply of biomass feedstock to a commercial-scale plant as well as improving the performance of…”
