Technical Description of Technology:<br />

The Syntec Process has the potential to revolutionize the ethanol industry<br />

with higher ethanol yields and lower production costs per ton of feedstock<br />

than any other ethanol production path in use today. Furthermore, it is<br />

anticipated that the Syntec Process will enable the conventional ethanol<br />

industry to value add by using these well established chemical processes to<br />

obtain production and efficiency metrics beyond which traditional grain based<br />

fermentation processes can offer.<br />
