ICC - Process Overview Text: <h6>Product</h6> <p><b>Ethanol</b>. Ethanol, also known as ethyl alcohol, may work as a solvent, a germicide, a fuel, and as a chemical intermediate for other organic chemicals. Currently, ethanol is mostly produced via fermentation of sugars, which can be obtained from crops, such as sugarcane and starch. However by relying on the sugar and starch content of food crops, ethanol production competes with food production. Therefore, recent research focus on the use of low-value raw materials, often deemed “waste”, to produce ethanol. That low-value feed can be biomass of lignocellulosic material found in wood, sugarcane bagasse and grain crop stubbles, or can be carbon monoxide found in waste gas streams from a range of industries. Lignocellulosic biomass could represent a new fermentable raw material if hydrolysis of this material is performed. Technological advances in this reaction still need to be achieved in order to make it economically feasible and render this usage of the agricultural residues competitive with respect to others, such as heat generation by burn.</p> <h6>Raw Material</h6> <p><b>Ethylene</b>. Ethylene is known as a key building block for the petrochemical industry, being one of the largest-volume petrochemical produced worldwide. It is widely used as chemical intermediate in the production of several end products, including plastics, resins and fibers. Ethylene is largely produced by thermal cracking of petroleum-based feedstocks, in the presence of steam. It is stored in a liquid state under high pressure or at low temperatures. However, ethylene is, most of times, directly supplied to its consumers.</p>
