A recent discovery by Stanford University scientists could lead to a new, more sustainable way to make ethanol without corn or other crops

“We are taking the problem and trying to turn it into a solution,” scientist says

Researchers modeled soil carbon sequestration rates for five crops

Fundamental enzyme study leads to increased access to bioenergy feedstocks and improves ethanol yield by modifying plant cell wall structures

ORNL researchers make surprising discovery while developing a new type of zeolite-based conversion technology

Corn yielding sucrose is much better for ethanol production than conventional corn yielding starch, researcher says

The battle for cleaner, greener fuels isn't fought solely on land – America’s rivers, lakes and surrounding seas are home to 17 million recreational boats keeping more than 75 million weekend warriors afloat each year.

Ethanol-producing Zymomonas mobilis can live on nitrogen gas, potentially cutting costs and environmental waste in biofuel production.

Using corn crop residue to make ethanol and other biofuels reduces soil carbon and can generate more greenhouse gases than gasoline, according to a study published recently in the journal Nature Climate Change.

Thermo Fisher Scientific has developed a fast, simple, direct-injection ion chromatography method with eluent generation to determine total and potential sulfate and total chloride in gasoline-denatured ethanol samples.
