Currently, research on improving ethanol yields from each unit of corn is underway using biotechnology. Also, as long as oil prices remain high, the economical use of other feedstocks, such as cellulose, becomes viable. By-products such as straw or wood chips can be converted to ethanol. ...
A comparison between ethanol from corn and gasoline from crude oil becomes very complex because of the variability of corn yield, the lack of available data on corn processing, and the complexity of treating the multiple products from corn processing. When the comparison is made on an energy ...
By simply mounting the Corona® extreme NIR system in-line with the auger, directly after the hammer mill, our corn ethanol producing customers can rapidly and reliably detect the yield metrics for every shipment 24/7. Measurement data for moisture, starch, protein and oil can be continuously...
The best condition (200°C, 8 min, 2g/L Na2CO3) increased the enzymatic conversion from cellulose to glucose of corn stover more then four times and resulted in 87% ethanol yield of theoretical, based on the cellulose available in the WO corn stover. This was achieved with a substrate ...
For example, the process of growing corn to produce ethanol consumes fossil fuels in farming equipment, in fertilizer manufacturing, in corn transportation, and in ethanol distillation. In this respect, ethanol made from corn represents a relatively small energy gain; the energy gain from sugarcane ...

What is the yield in terms of volume of ethanol per bushel of corn? I found an old link related to corn waste but the links posted are no longer good. http://ww
Using switchgrass for ethanol production would reduce dependence on food crops, such as corn, that are currently used for fuel ethanol. Hot compressed liquid water was used to treat Alamo switchgrass in a method called hydrothermolysis to disrupt lignin, dissolve hemicellulose, and increase ...
