End-Product Tolerance and Ethanol

  • Chapter
Trends in the Biology of Fermentations for Fuels and Chemicals

Part of the book series: Basic Life Sciences ((BLSC))

Abstract

Fossil fuels, and in particular oil and its derivatives, are the source of the vast proportion of fuels and chemicals used today in developed countries of the World. However, fossil fuels have two insurmountable drawbacks which restrict their production and utilization. The first of these, all too well known to inhabitants of both developed and underdeveloped countries of the World, is that the sources of most of the more desirable fossil fuels are approaching exhaustion, so that they are fast becoming a precious and expensive commodity. Secondly, their continued and increasing use has brought with it environmental pollution problems.
