~~ MIT Experts SEE Efficient Ethanol Production In Our Future!
Many are worried about the depletion of corn supplies and the possibility of the rise in food costs.
MIT Experts are seeing efficient ethanol production in our future - not with corn buT cellulosic ethanol production.
To replace corn as the main feedstock for ethanol production, scientists are turning to cellulose found in grasses and agricultural wastes. MIT expert, Gregory Stephanopoulos outlined several challenges to producing ethanol from cellulose and the avenues of research many scientists are pursuing to overcome them.
“The technology to produce cellulosic ethanol is not there yet,” Stephanopoulos said. However, he estimates that large-scale, economically feasible production of ethanol from cellulose could happen within 10 to 15 years.
