Determining the cost of producing ethanol from corn starch and lignocellulosic feedstocks
- U.S. Department of Agriculture, Washington D.C. (United States)
- National Renewable Energy Lab. (NREL), Golden, CO (United States)
This report describes the comparison of the processes, each producing 25 million annual gallons of fuel ethanol. This paper attempts to compare the two processes as mature technologies, which requires assuming that the technology improvements needed to make the lignocellulosic process commercializable are achieved, and enough plants have been built to make the design well-understood.
