Book Description
The Guide to Commercial-Scale Ethanol Production and Financing was produced by the Solar Energy Research Institute on behalf of the U. S. Department of Energy. It is aimed at facilitating the production and adoption of alcohol fuels on a wide scale throughout the United States. The guide was conceived and developed as a special aid to entrepreneurs who have interest in the business of alcohol fuel production on a commercial scale. |

Ethanol Guide is 24 years old, much content is out of date 
This book is far too old to be of much value today. But, because there are so few books on this topic, and because virtually all of the others also are over-priced, "A Guide to Commercial-Scale Ethanol Production and Financing" is worth considering for the person who wants a comprehensive library on ethanol.
However, the 2002 copyright date is very misleading: This is a reprint of the 1981 edition. This is not a revision or update. It is word-for-word from the 1981 edition and this should be made clear to buyers before they purchase the book.
The field of renewable energy is dynamic. Changes in technology alone have made this 24-year-old book virtually obsolete, not to mention dramatic changes in politics and economics that have made major portions of the book seem quaint if not laughable.
