Allard launches small-scale cellulosic ethanol system: uses ordinary household, yard waste
In Texas, Allard Research and Development announced the launch of its small-scale ethanol fuel production system utilizing cellulose as the primary feedstock. The new system, designed as a front-end processor for Allard’s existing line of modular ethanol distillation systems, turns ordinary waste products ranging from lawn clippings, cardboard, paper, sawdust and other cellulose-based material into fermentable sugars. Once turned into sugars, the solution is fermented and distilled into ethanol fuel using Allard’s existing line of ethanol distillation systems. The company announced that it expects to go into production with the new cellulose processor in the second quarter of 2010.
