Problem Statement Our project is to design a process for the production of fuel grade ethanol from unconventional sources. Design a production process using chemical engineering principles and HYSYS simulations. Using ASTM specifications for automobile fuel grade ethanol. From a resource that would not take up food production resources and or hurt the environment. Project Overview --- Fuel Sources --- Design Norms --- Conclusion
