How to Integrate Third Generation Biorefining to old Ethanol Plants

Integration of 3G biorefining to 1G ethanol plants increases the yield of ethanol per cultivated sugarcane or corn. For 1G ethanol producers, the use of non-food biomasses side by side with the existing capacity would give both profitability as well as creditability with respect to environmental and social sustainability.

For example, in India the 3G technology would provide approximately three-fold revenues for the use of bagasse when compared to current use in co-generation at sugar mills. A tremendous change in the advanced biofuel business can be expected while biorefining technology companies create partnerships to build commercialscale mills.
