To facilitate better and more rapid coordination among the CEFRC members, Center research activities are organized into three Disciplinary Working Groups (DWGs)
- Chemistry: Theory (Coordinated by William H. Green)
- Chemistry: Experiment and Mechanisms (Coordinated by Hai Wang)
- Chemistry and Transport (Coordinated by Yiguang Ju)
Additionally, the CEFRC has enlarged its scope of investigation by extending our prior focus on butanol to three unifying, thrust targets that define the extensive matrix of synthetic and bio-derived alternative fuels. in particular, we aim to develop chemical reaction mechanisms for:
