Biomass Processing and 2G Ethanol Production – CTC Technology Demonstration Facilities
The presentation will show two different technologies related to biomass that have been developed by CTC which were already implemented at demonstration scale. In the first case, the processing of sugarcane straw bales as a means of increasing the available biomass that could be used for Energy or E2G production. The second, an E2G small scale facility for process and equipment improvement and technology demonstration.
