Presentation Overview Project Overview Fuel Source Alternatives Design Norms Conclusion
Problem StatementOur 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.
