STAN BLADE: <\/b><em>There is a remarkable amount of biomass in this province.  We have 35 million hectares of forest, over 20 million hectares of annual crops and forage crops in Alberta.    But not only that, what are those convergence technologies that can take that biomass and turn it into those new products.  And we\u2019re making those kind of investments as well.     Perhaps one example is the new bioconversion network that\u2019s run out of the University of Alberta.  That\u2019s made up of a number of companies from both within and outside Alberta giving some consideration to what can we do with ag fibre, with forest fibres, to create fine chemicals, to create a whole array of products that don\u2019t really exist right now. <\/em>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDr. Stan Blade says Bio Solutions will help commercialize new technology from agricultural and forestry research.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nLearn more at InnovationAnthology.com\n<\/p>\n<p>\nI\u2019M CHERYL CROUCHER\n<\/p>\n<h2>Guest<\/h2>\n<h3> , <\/h3>\n<h4>, , , , <\/h4>\n<h2>Sponsor<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"\"><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/innovationanthology.com\/uploads\/\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Program Date:<\/strong>\u00a02010-05-20<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The growing bioeconomy is fuelled by advances in agriculture and forestry.
