Energy From Vast Biomass 14, Agri Cellulosic Ethanol
• -->> cont: •2 AGRICULTURAL: NON CROP PLANT PORTION Cellulosic Ethanol:
• ✔ 2a Enzyma'c Hydrolysis: Far less fuel recovery % & slow, cannot digest
lignin etc compared to other processes. Challenge includes different
saccharifica@on speed(of diges@ng polysaccharides: Hemi-Cellulose heavier to
C5 sugar: glucose, Cellulose to C6: xylose). Lignin(Aroma@c Polymer) can be
sold as nonfuel value raw material(eg for Vanillin, Glycol) but too much
volume?; Maybe compe@@ve as aroma@c compound material?
• i -Introductory type Cellulosic Ethanol: by "bolted on" to exis@ng food stock
ethanol plant: corn kernel fibre processing to increase extra 5-10% of ethanol
produc@on(Cellerate-Syngenta, Edeniq +), only 3rd party line produc@on but
claims < $1/gallon(< $0.265/litre) (GeoSynFuels), ii-Regular stand alone type
Ethanol produc'on, some use cataly@c pretreatment: (Clariant, Inbicon,
Iogen ca, Zeachem, American Process, Bioflex - GranBio, Beta Renewables,
Abengoa Bioenergy+), Largest 2nd genera@on bio ethanol opera@on as of
2016(Dupont), Largest overall bio ethanol maker par@cipates (POET llc),
Star@ng outside of Europe/North America(Raizen, Henan Tianguan,
Shandong Longlive+), Rare SuperCri@cal water(SCW) pretreatment tech
