Using a wet ethanol production method that begins by soaking corn kernels rather than grinding them, results in more gallons of ethanol and more usable co-products, giving ethanol producers a bigger ...

(PhysOrg.com) -- Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis are proposing to borrow a process used in breweries and wastewater treatment facilities to make corn ethanol more energy efficient.

The danger of the ever-increasing levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in Earth's atmosphere has become one of the most pressing issues of our age. As such, much research has been conducted to find ways not ...

Researchers in Tennessee have stumbled upon a process that could revolutionize the ethanol business in Iowa. Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a nanoscience user facility owned by the ...

Sweden’s University of Borås doctoral student Ramkumar Nair has shown it is possible to produce bioethanol from agricultural and industrial waste in existing plants in a socioeconomically sustainable ...

Reliance on petroleum fuels and raging wildfires: Two separate, large-scale challenges that could be addressed by one scientific breakthrough. Teams from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory ...

This video segment adapted from NOVA examines ethanol, a cleaner-burning fuel alternative to gasoline, and the efforts to produce it more efficiently. Today, most ethanol in the United States is made ...

Ethanol fermentation remains the cornerstone of bioethanol production, converting fermentable sugars from first‐generation (cane, beet, grain) and second‐generation (lignocellulosic, agricultural ...

Ethanol fermentation converts sugars into bioethanol through the action of microorganisms, most commonly yeast, under anaerobic conditions. Feedstocks range from first-generation sugar and starch ...
