Subject: Re: my thought on celulose ethanol.



Ripley, Ontario Canada
The logical place for the celulose ethanol will likely be corn cobs. They are already handled in the grain corn harvesting process. Farmers will just have to make a decision on where to separate the cob and the grain. They could go back to cobbing the corn, and separate at the yard, or they could combine as now and just catch the cobs/stalks that go through the combine, and pull a silage dump cart or cotton cart behind and blow in. It will require a lot more trucks and if the stuff is going to be moved any distance some sort of compression technology, perhaps how they now haul garbage, in enclosed trailers that they press the stuff into, and push it out? I agree it will not happen fast, and the "experts" have no idea of the volume of stuff this is going to take, or how much it will cost to move it.
