The market for ethanol greatly exceeds what can be produced from grain. Grain processing creates waste residues that can be used for ethanol production. Processing creates products that are in high demand. Providing conversion technology for wastes and residues could increase farm incomes further. Bioconversion of agricultural and silvicultural residues increases efficiency of resource use.
Ethanol is an excellent fuel that integrates with current transportation systems.
Ethanol manufacture can be combined with formation of other high-value products. Bioconversion can be improved through better processing and fermentation technologies. For links to other sites of interest, visit our hotlinks page.
