Ethanol Market Share
There has been concern that Corn Ethanol cannot produce enough Ethanol to meet fuel demand in the U.S.
Athough this is true, it does not mean that Cellulosic Ethanol is limited by the same economic factors as Corn, because Cellulose is a cropless source and its by-products are not consumable.
And, just because the overall Cellulosic Ethanol industry has lower fermentation yield than Corn, does not mean Wise Landfill's process has the same fermentation limitations.
Wise Landfill made a discovery that resisted the conventional wisdom that one is only limited to the sugars inside plant cell tissue, and uses nearly 100% of the biomass.

|
Comparisons between production types reflect most-likely scenarios; numbers averaged where indicated.
* Corn growers are limited by location, economics, and other factors that limit expansion (per industry analysis).
Cellulosic processes are only limited by how much fermentation can be gotten out of its source stock.

Wise Landfill uses organisms to convert trash and carbon dioxide into carbon-negative alternative fuels, averting oil crisis while improving local economies at oil independence capacity.
This proprietary process produces ethanol and bio-diesel. Bioremediation of nuclear waste is also underway.
