and more environment friendly
The General Research Institute has make a new production technology of
bioethanol that is safer and more environment friendly.The researchers
from Japan have create a "super yeast" which is sake yeast genetically
modified with koji mold genes. Instead of using chemical agents, the
new method pretreats plants for fermentation with water at subcritical
region or high-temperature and high-pressure water.
In a subcritical region,water becomes acidic but as temperature and
pressure declines, water retains its neutral state.Researchers
confirmed in the experiment that chaff and paddy straw can be used to
produce ethanol.
