companies such as Genencor and Novozymes have developed microbes that now make
it
economically feasible to produce ethanol not only from grain but also from
corn stover, wheat straw

residues. Recently completed research
on enzymes
makes possible large-scale production of cellulosic ethanol from
dedicated energy crops -- like switch

the Production
of Cellulosic Ethanol and End US Addiction to Oil
WASHINGTON

Organization (BIO) president + CEO, stated today, "Industrial
biotechnology is
causing a dramatic paradigm shift in transportation fuels that will end our
national
addiction to oil.
BIO released a letter to Congressional appropriators requesting full
funding
for programs authorized in the Energy Policy Act of 2005 that would
support research and development
into advanced cellulosic ethanol production,
support private investment in modern biorefinery construction
, and provide
loan guarantees and market incentives for rapid adoption of cellulosic ethanol
motor
fuel. If Congressional commitments are made now, cellulosic ethanol
could quickly replace much of
the imported oil in America's domestic
transportation fuel supply.

called the third wave in biotechnology innovation,
is using novel biotech
tools to identify or improve enzymes from microbes for use in converting the
hard, fibrous content of plants, primarily cellulose and lignin, to sugars.
