A cheaper Ethanol is produced from Coal and Natural Gas, as both Coal and Natural Gas are abundant and available at a lower cost than Crude Petroleum Oil. Corn Ethanol is very expensive as one gallon of Corn Ethanol needs about 22 lb of corn. Production process from Coal and Natural Gas is much more simple than Gasoline from Crude Oil, and Corn Ethanol. Visit us at www.coalplantsengineering.com
Dear ltnlng, Before referring the environment, consider the process presented: Coke and Natural Gas react together forming Ethylene gas, next Ethylene reacts with steam producing Ethanol. No emission of any kind. All the reactants are consumed producing Ethanol. This process is more economical than producing Gasoline from Petroleum. It did not find a market yet, as it is a new concept. Surely this process will be the most reliable source in the near future.
