Scientists have found a way to boost ethanol production via yeast fermentation, a standard method for converting plant sugars into biofuels. Their approach relies on careful timing and a tight ...

Research at the Integrated Bioprocessing Research Laboratory at the University of Illinois continues to improve the dry-grind process used to produce ethanol from corn. "One of the major challenges in ...

BACKGROUND: While simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation (SSCF) is considered to be a promising process for bioconversion of lignocellulosic materials to ethanol, there are still relatively ...

Enduro Genetics, a Denmark-based start-up, aims to increase efficiency in biomanufacturing. By getting producing cells ‘addicted’ to production, the start-up aims to vastly improve production ...

The US is the world's largest producer of bioethanol as renewable liquid fuel, with more than 200 commercial plants processing over 16 billion gallons per year. Plants typically use dry grind ...
