...to start laying the groundwork for future commercial cellulosic ethanol sites," says Steve Hartig, General Manager, Licensing for POET-DSM. "This technology is going to add a new dimension to what producers are doing today."
Eileen Tutt, executive director of the California Electric Transportation Coalition (CalETC), said the LCFS is doing "exactly what it was designed to do--open the way for new fuels and technologies to compete fairly in the marketplace."
Despite the limited potential for now, Adams remains upbeat for the future of their discovery, "This is an important first step that has great promise as an efficient and cost-effective method of producing fuels...in the future we will refine the process and begin testing it on larger scales."
Which makes sense: it's making those enzymes in order to turn the cellulose into sugar, and if it "s got sugar, why waste the effort? Other wood-eating fungus species do the same thing. Past researchers have found that the Trichoderma fungus can be "tricked" into continued enzyme production even in the presence of sugar by exposing it to a "precursor chemical" called sophorose, but sophorose costs about $3,300 per gram -- more than 60 times the current price of gold. Not the kind of thing you want to have to shovel into fermenting vats."
