The information services provider says the new tool, Elsevier Bio-fuel, will assist companies in making key decisions surrounding the bio-fuel and the bio-energy markets, making commercialisation of alternative energy technologies quicker and more efficient.
“Bio-energy RD&D (Research, Development and Demonstration) is a complex interdisciplinary challenge," said Marcus Gay, Bio-fuels Information Consultant, Elsevier Biofuels. "As a former bio-energy R&D manager I am acutely aware of the technical, economic and commercial challenges faced by professionals in the industry.
“Elsevier's Biofuel Information Discovery Tool pulls together scientific and commercial information enabling researchers to have this critical binocular vision during every stage of the development process," he said.
The tool allows users to drill down to keywords that pinpoint the exact information needed.
The company has also created a feature it calls the Elsevier Biofuel Tree Thesaurus (EBTT), which research professionals can easily and accurately navigate through more than 900 journals and 800 books, 5.8 million patent documents.
