Researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have been awarded up to $3.3 million for a project that would produce chemicals from biomass.

The grant was one of five announced Thursday by the U.S. Energy Department. The agency awarded a total of $13.4 million for projects that aim to help develop advanced biofuels as well as biioproducts, the agency said.
