The old saying is that cellulosic ethanol is always and forever five years away. If thats true, then its time to party like its 2014, because commercial-scale cellulosic ethanol is just now upon us...
Hybrids
ZeaChem is pursuing a hybrid strategy converting sugars to ethanol with an acetogenic process that does not produce CO2 as a by-product good for emissions, also good for efficiencies. In addition, the lignin residues are gasified to provide extra hydrogen to make the process even more chemically efficient.
