• Abstract:
  The production of bioethanol from peat is proposed. A search of the available ; literature yields no prior information on the use of peat as a carbon source for ; bioethanol. This proposal addresses the production in the most cost-effective manner ; possible, utilizing special enzymes, and using materials native to Michigan. The ; bioethanol proposed will either be utilized as fuel or in fuel blends.
