so the carbon cycle is nearly 100% complete. narrator: today, most of the ethanol produced in the united states comes from corn. the process is not much different from that of making wine or brewing beer. in large-scale plants all over the midwest the starch in corn kernels is converted to sugars which are then fermented with yeast. the end product of this fermentation is then distilled to separate the ethanol. but there are limitations to increasing the production of corn ethanol. corn is already a valuable commodity. it is an ingredient in many of the foods we eat and also used as feed for livestock. douglas: we think we can go to about 15 billion gallons of ethanol a year from corn kernels. but anything beyond that the competition between fuel and food starts to take place. and so to get more than 15 billion gallons of ethanol a year, we need to go to other methods. and that's why we're interested in trying to learn how to economically make ethanol from the cellulosic materials -- that is, the stalks, stems, leaves -- the non
