You've heard all about ethanol and cellulosic ethanol, but you really aren't sure how it is made. The link below will take you to an excellent ethanol-focused Web site that includes a basic ethanol 101 on producing ethanol from corn. And on the page is a pop-up flash demo "WATCH HOW ETHANOL IS MADE" that you'll want to be sure to watch (and listen to) - an excellent yet basic quick overview of the production of ethanol.
The Web site is the Internet home for the Ethanol Promotion and Information Council (EPIC), a nonprofit nonprofit alliance of ethanol industry leaders. The organization was formed to provide a central organization for the ethanol industry, one that's goal is to help expand consumer demand for ethanol.
This Web site is loaded with excellent information on ethanol, the ethanol industry, and the companies that are doing their best in helping make the U.S. less dependent on foreign oil, and providing their knowledge, skill, and production successes for all to benefit throughout the world. Here are some of the topics & pages of interest:
