Lee Rybeck Lynd is a biochemical engineer and microbiologist who has spent four decades figuring out how to make plants pay for themselves as fuel. He is the Paul E. and Joan H. Queneau Distinguished Professor of Engineering at Dartmouth, co-founder and CTO of Terragia Biofuel, and the scientist most associated with consolidated bioprocessing, the one-pot fermentation idea that uses heat-loving bacteria like Clostridium thermocellum to chew through crop residue and spit out ethanol.
