When corn is used to make ethanol, just a portion of the corn kernel is consumed—and, in fact, much of the corn is returned to increase the world’s supply of livestock feed and human food. The conversion of grain to ethanol and other co-products is relatively simple. The starch and fiber are converted to ethanol and a variety of other products, depending on the process used.After years of cheap corn, American farmers are finally seeing the fruits of their investment in the ethanol industry as corn prices have surged. For 25 years, corn farmers have worked without getting a raise. Higher grain prices are creating an economic engine for rural America that is re-energizing rural communities and reducing agricultural subsidies.

Ethanol; Ethyl alcohol; Alcohol; Methylcarbinol; Grain alcohol; Ethyl hydroxide are all names you can call ethanol. Ethanol is a clear, colorless liquid rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and distributed throughout the body. It has bactericidal activity and is used often as a topical disinfectant. It is widely used as a solvent and preservative in pharmaceutical preparations as well as serving as the primary ingredient in all alcoholic beverages.

Today, we use ethanol for many things from producing medicine and synthesizing chemical products to fueling our heaters, lamps and cars. Some of the oldest engines actually ran on ethanol. The fermentation of sugar into ethanol is one of the earliest organic reactions that people learned to carry out. In 1796 Johann Tobias Lowitz got pure ethanol by filtering distilled ethanol through activated charcoal. Antoine Lavoisier found out the elements consisted in ethanol and it took till the 19th century to find out the formula

Most ethanol in the United States is produced from starch-based crops by dry- or wet-mill processing. Dry-milling is when corn grinds into flour and ferments it into ethanol.
It can be found as alcohol found in alcoholic beverages, produced by the fermentation of sugars by yeasts.

Ethanol has the chemical formula CH3CH2OH and contains carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms.

*Mass percent of CARBON = #24.0/59.0 * 100% = 40.7%
*Mass percent of HYDROGEN = #5.00/59.0 = 8.50%
*Mass percent of OXYGEN = #16.0/59.0 * 100% = 27.1%
