An integrated protocol to study hydrogen abstraction reactions by atomic hydrogen in flexible molecules: application to butanol isomers
TL;DR: In this article , the authors present a protocol designed to study hydrogen abstraction reactions by atomic hydrogen in molecules with multiple conformations using the TorsiFlex program, which is based on a simple modification of the starting geometry of reactants and generates the input for the hydrogen abstraction transition states.

Environmental, economic, and energetic costs and benefits of biodiesel and ethanol biofuels
TL;DR: Transportation biofuels such as synfuel hydrocarbons or cellulosic ethanol, if produced from low-input biomass grown on agriculturally marginal land or from waste biomass, could provide much greater supplies and environmental benefits than food-basedBiofuels.
