Carbon capture from corn stover ethanol production <i>via</i> mature consolidated bioprocessing enables large negative biorefinery GHG emissions and fossil fuel-competitive economics
Matthew R. Kubis, Lee R. Lynd
Abstract
Potential to capture 70% of feedstock carbon while >50% of feedstock lower heating value is converted to biofuel and coproducts.
