1 1 Corn Ethanol Process and Production Economics Presented to the 2007 Fertilizer Outlook and Technology Conference Arlington, VA November 8, 2006 John M. Urbanchuk Director, LECG LLC 1255 Drummers Lane, Suite 320 Wayne, PA Tel:
2 2 Ethanol (CH 3 CH 2 OH) Ethyl alcohol made primarily by converting starch in agricultural products to sugar and then to alcohol. Used as an additive to enhance octane and add oxygen to motor gasoline. Most ethanol sold as a 10% blend (E-10) E-85 is slow out of the blocks due to infrastructure constraints

4 4 Most ethanol today is made from the corn dry milling process Plants by Process Capacity by Process Wet Dry Other Bil Gal Wet Dry Other Source: BBI International; RFA
5 5 Feedstock and energy costs are the key to ethanol profitability Feedstocks typically account for almost two-thirds of operating costs. Co-product credits (distiller s grains and CO 2 ) are crucial to controlling feedstock costs. Energy costs are a close second in importance. Using co-generated power from waste-coal or landfill gas as a boiler fuel can cut production costs.

11 11 Technology and Capital Cost Conventional grain fermentation ethanol production technology is well understood. Current technology for cellulosic ethanol is another matter. Current technology for cellulosic ethanol is the acid hydrolysis process. Capital costs are almost 4X that of dry mill ethanol. Enzyme technology holds promise for improved economics, but is not yet commercialized.

19 19 Why is ethanol desirable? Ethanol is renewable and has a significant positive net energy balance. Ethanol provides important environmental benefits. Increased demand for grain improves farm revenues and reduces the cost of government programs. Ethanol reduce America s dependence on imported oil, expands the economy, creates jobs, and puts money into the pockets of American consumers.
