Program description: The ethanol project supports development of four technology platforms for bioethanol production. The first three are based on different approaches to producing sugars from biomass and then fermenting the sugars to ethanol. The fourth is a very different approach involving thermal processing of biomass to gaseous hydrogen and carbon monoxide, followed by fermentation to ethanol.
