In a previous study detailed material and energy balances were made and process designs were prepared for a fermentation alcohol plant capable of producing 20 million gallons per year of anhydrous ethanol from corn. A detailed set of utility requirements (steam, electricity, cooling water) for the plant were obtained as a part of this design. This information coupled with an analysis of the energy requirements for corn production has made it possible to carry out a detailed total energy analysis for the manufacture of ethanol by the fermentation of corn stalks, cobs, and husks.
