I have plans to make ethanol as an alternative fuel using plant material...this technique will utilize bacteria and fungi...this will not be a traditional ethanol production process...cellulose degrading bacteria will initially be used in the process..
All agricultural wastes, vegetable waste from the markets, and wood material could be used...the purity of the final product will be taken care of utilizing partial distillation...
As u know ethanol is produced commercially with the help of saccharomyces ceraviceae etc in huge bioreacters...use of microbes is highly economical.. I have already started the project and wish to look for people who are interested in and want to take an active part in the process...people with a scientific backgroungd will be entertained..
This will entirely be a commercial product and thwe end product will not be suitable for human consumption...I'm at present studying the suitability of ethanol as an alternative fuel.
Since this is a hydrocarbon burning it will produce carbon dioxide and water only...it will not have bad emisions like you will with fossil fuels...
Anyway, since it's emitting CO2 still u will have the green house effect...but I wanna give it a try...may be we can make a mechanism to absord CO2 before releasing it to the environment...
Please post your interest here..
