I am new here, but this certainly looks like the place to be.
I my opinion looking at ethanol strictly from a BTU to create over BTU available leaves out too many important variables. Even if with Ethanol’s numbers looking dismally uneconomical to many people who I will call naysayers the clincher for me is ethanol comes from a renewable resource corn. If we can figure out a way to break down the cellulose in wood waste forests products we would really have something. Don’t get me wrong I want to help the American farmers but I live in the forests of the South-West USA and we have a real problem with small diameter trees choking the forests and creating a fire hazard. The solution becomes,  two birds with one stone, economically speaking. The trees have to be removed and are anyway but they are being chipped and left in most places. Lets do some real research on fomenting wood fibers.
