The National Science Foundation (NSF) has expanded funding for the Engineering Research Center for Biorenewable Chemicals at Iowa State University.

The science foundation will give the center $12 million over the next three years. That brings total federal investment in the center up to $30.5 million over eight years.

The center aims to transform the industrial chemical industry from one based on petroleum to one based on biorenewable resources.
