Pathways for development of a biorenewables industry.
The advanced energy initiative to reduce the nation's future demand for oil has resulted in the definition of a number of pathways for the development of the bio-renewables industry. This paper gives an overview of the pathways which could lead to both ethanol and other types of bio-products. The methods that would be used for cellulose conversion also apply to adding value for the co-products of ethanol production. Process milestones and pathways for research that would enable corn dry mill operations to improve are described. A corn dry mill improvement pathway is outlined, and introduces the topics that are covered in this particular special volume.
