        What is BioSTEAM?
        -----------------
        
        BioSTEAM is a fast and flexible package for the design, simulation, and techno-economic analysis of biorefineries under uncertainty [1]_. BioSTEAM's framework is built to streamline and automate early-stage technology evaluations and to enable rigorous sensitivity and uncertainty analyses. Complete biorefinery configurations are available at the `Bioindustrial-Park <https://github.com/BioSTEAMDevelopmentGroup/biosteam>`_ GitHub repository, BioSTEAM's premier repository for biorefinery models and results. The long-term growth and maintenance of BioSTEAM is supported through both community-led development and the research institutions invested in BioSTEAM, including the `Center for Advanced Bioenergy and Bioproducts Innovation (CABBI) <https://cabbi.bio/>`_. Through its open-source and community-lead platform, BioSTEAM aims to foster communication and transparency within the biorefinery research community for an integrated effort to expedite the evaluation of candidate biofuels and bioproducts.
        
        All data on chemicals, fitted coefficients, and functions to estimate chemical properties are imported from `chemicals <https://chemicals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`_, a community-driven open-source library developed by Caleb Bell. The `thermosteam <https://thermosteam.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`_ library, BioSTEAM's premire thermodynamic engine, creates thermodynamic property packages by implementing both the mixing rules and the algorithms for thermodynamic equilibrium and by relying on the `chemicals` library for pure component models.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        Get the latest version of BioSTEAM from `PyPI <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/biosteam/>`__. If you have an installation of Python with pip, simple install it with:
        
            $ pip install biosteam
        
        To get the git version, run:
        
            $ git clone git://github.com/BioSTEAMDevelopmentGroup/biosteam
        
        For help on common installtion issues, please visit the `documentation <https://biosteam.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Installation.html>`__.
