2b Dilute Acid Hydrolysis: Fundamentally different business model from other lignocellulosic biofuel operations : Used in Soviet/Russia since 1930s with production adjustable high% value byproducts and option of value added alcohol instead of fuel ethanol. Low key local production(Янгиюльский гидролизный завод +), rare exporting company(Fargona Kimyo Zavodi +), (also see p106-108 for wood ethanol),

2c Gasification + Steam Reform or/& Fischer-Tropsch: (Ineos+), some methods produce liquid fuel 3-4times more than above Enzyme method per given stock, orders of magnitude faster processing by direct synthesis with metal catalyst(Sekisui Chemical, Mitsui Zosen+), same efficiency with many Sub/SCW methods. Very minor utilization: eg Superheated steam◎(Sundrop Fuels+). 113
