Simple Process Flow

This document outlines the basic steps in producing ethanol from corn stover: corn stover goes through pretreatment with steam and acid to break it down, then enzymes are added to convert the sugars to ethanol through saccharification and fermentation. The ethanol is then purified through distillation while lignin is burned to generate power.
