Our First Cellulosic Ethanol Plant!!!Comments for Our First Cellulosic Ethanol Plant!!! at http://www.ecogeek.org , comment 0 to 20 out of 63 comments...- March 28, 2008 what is the conversion ration of maize residue to methanol through gasification process - Bamikolehttp://www.ecogeek.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=798&Itemid=70... Ethanol Plant- March 19, 2008 Things have a tendency to evolve and reach new steps on the scale of evolution. This ethanol step in fuel evolution will surely get solved in the next 10 to 20 years as the oil reserves go lower and lower. - Appliancehttp://www.ecogeek.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=798&Itemid=70... Roach----(muscle cars)- March 14, 2008 Roach---100% ethanol is the only fuel allowed in Indy race cars for safety reasons. This is the first year for that rule, however, there was no arguements about it because they've been using ethanol for over 30 years anyway. It is simply a better fuel than gasoline in ultra high performance engines. It has an octane rating between 110 and 120. Ia that high performance enough for you - Wetdoghttp://www.ecogeek.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=798&Itemid=70... ...- March 14, 2008 Germany was producing ethanol from wood wastes in the 1890's---and had extensive alcohol based engine and appliance industries. The US was producing commercial ethanol from the 1890's to the 1920's from logging industry waste, in at least three plants in the South. That industry was put out of business in 1920 by the Volstead Act(prohibition)---the passage of which was funded largely by--you guessed it, the oil industry.

Quick run down is fundamentally WRONG- March 4, 2008 "Cellulosic ethanol is ethanol that comes from cellulose instead of sugar" = wrong cellulose is broken down to free the glucose (aka sugar) to be fermented and distilled into ethanol - Randyhttp://www.ecogeek.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=798&Itemid=70... |
