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