This assignment was a critical analysis about a research article which was focused towards ethanol production. The primary aim of research was to reduce the cost of ethanol production form corn. The use of alternative substrates for commercial production would ensure considerable reduction in the production cost with a nearly similar yield of ethanol. Three methods were analysed for the production of ethanol and a comparable yield was observed in case of the second method.
