Example of a cellulosic ethanol process (Edenic Inc.)

Second-generation bioethanol, also called cellulosic ethanol, is ethanol fuel produced from lignocellulosic biomass that contains cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. These feedstocks include agricultural residues (corn stover, wheat straw, rice straw), forestry residues, dedicated energy crops (switchgrass, miscanthus), and wood.
