*Most E10 is out of Billings and Missoula. Ethanol is being used for octane boost (not E10)

What’s Next: Biobutanol?• Why:
• Higher energy content (24%+); • Higher allowable blend rate for vehicles & pipelines
(16-24%);• More higher value co-products;• Each gallon of biobutanol = 1.3 ethanol equivalents
• Process: ABE (6:3:1 advanced now 35:65:1) & others
• Each pound grain = about 1/3 (in weight) each of alcohols (acetone, butanol, ethanol, propanol) gases (CO2 & H2) and distillers grains
Biobutanol ~ Biofuels Growth?
• 14 billion gallon/yr (bgy) EtOH capacity(15 bgy RFS cap)
• 13 bgy “E10” blend wall Higher allowable • 100 mgy ethanol ~ 80 mgy biobutanol
(Gevo and Butamax) (plus DDGS, acetone & EtOH) or
• 14 bgy EtOH capacity ~ 11.1 BtOH capacity
• 16% (E10 equivalent) blend rate = 20.8 bgy
• Biorefinery or Bioremediation?
