Bench-scale demonstration of biological production of ethanol from coal synthesis gas. Topical report 5, Process analysis
Abstract
The economics of converting coal to ethanol by a biological process is quite attractive. When processing 1500 tons of coal per day, the plant generates 85 million gallons of ethanol per year. The return on investment for the process is 110 percent and the payout is 0.9 years.
