Make Your Own Ethanol
The American Coalition for Ethanol supports the consumer's right to know if gasoline contains ethanol, but we don't favor labels that appear more like a warning label or a poison sticker. This can be detrimental because people will shy away from purchasing something they are not familiar with or something that looks potentially harmful.

Making fuel ethanol more cheaply
Ethanol offers a renewable supply of auto fuel, and it can also reduce pollution. But in the United States, fuel ethanol is made almost exclusively from corn kernels, and it provides little more energy than raising, harvesting, and processing the corn consumes.
Determined to help wean the world off petroleum, bioengineer Michael Raab is putting enzymes into corn that will make it easier and cheaper to convert the entire plant--kernels, husk, stalk, and leaves--into ethanol. These proteins allow processors to break the complex carbohydrates that make up most of the corn plant into simple sugars that can be easily fermented into ethanol.
TR: What is your company, Agrivida, doing?
Raab: We're taking the processing enzymes used to break down the leaves and the stalks and reëngineering them so they have no activity when they're in the plant.
Pulp mill may find salvation in ethanol
ABERDEEN -- Community leaders aren't giving up on saving the Weyerhaeuser pulp mill in Cosmopolis from closure, but they are starting to think outside the box. For example, what if, instead of producing cellulose needed for cigarette filters, the mill was converted to create ethanol? According to a feasibility report funded by the Governor's Office, the process to create ethanol at the mill is not only possible, but the technology is available to make it probable. "I'm pitching the sale of the mill every day," says Roy Nott, the president of Paneltech in Hoquiam, who led the team responsible for the feasibility report. "I have people interested in the possibility of ethanol production, but no takers yet." Ethanol can be used as a solvent in colognes, cleaning solutions and even medicine, though lately, it's been in the news more for its potential as a renewable clean-burning additive to gasoline.
