Most trees and grasses are made of cellulose, which can also be converted into sugar, although not as easily as starch.Most ethanol is produced using a four-step process:The ethanol feedstock (crops or plants) are ground up for easier processing;Sugar is dissolved from the ground material, or the starch or cellulose is converted into sugar;Microbes feed on the sugar, producing ethanol and carbon dioxide as byproducts; andThe ethanol is purified to achieve the correct concentration.It is also possible to produce ethanol through a wet-milling process, which is used by many large ethanol producers.
