The International Conference on Thermochemical Conversion Science:
Biomass and Waste to Fuels and Chemicals
August 22–27, 2026 | Historic Brown Palace Hotel & Spa | Denver, Colorado
tcbiomass+2026 focuses on the science of thermochemical conversion of biomass and municipal solid waste (MSW) to renewable methane, LPG, liquid fuels, and chemicals. This international event draws attendees from around the world, with past conferences including representatives from Brazil, China, Finland, Germany, India, New Zealand, South Africa, Sweden, and over 20 other countries.
This unique conference highlights the science of thermochemical conversion and real commercial opportunities for deployment of this technology.
For the 9th edition of the tcbiomass Conference we are bringing back the tcbiomass+ franchise. This edition of the conference will include topics on the conversion of municipal solid wastes (MSW), waste and recycled carbon, and alcohols as feedstocks; as well as the core topics on the thermochemical conversion of biomass into liquid and gaseous fuels, and chemicals. This unique conference highlights technical progress in these topics, connections with industry, and real commercial opportunities for deployment of technology.
The 2026 conference will be held in collaboration with the National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR) at the Historic Brown Palace Hotel, a Marriott Autograph Hotel, in Denver Colorado. This international event draws attendees from around the world, with past conferences including representatives from Brazil, China, Finland, Germany, India, New Zealand, South Africa, Sweden, and over 20 other countries.
Previous editions of the conference have featured keynotes from influencing leaders from industry, government agencies, national laboratories, the European Union, as well as a number of speakers selected by peer review following a call for papers.
