The bioconversion of biomass to mixed alcohol fuels can be accomplished using the MixAlco process. Through bioconversion of biomass to a mixed alcohol fuel, more energy from the biomass will end up as liquid fuels than in converting biomass to ethanol by yeast fermentation.

1-Pentanol, (or n-pentanol, pentan-1-ol), is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 OH and is classified as a primary alcohol. [2] It is a colourless liquid with a distinctive aroma. It is one of 8 isomeric alcohols with the formula C 5 H 11 OH. It is used as a solvent, a biological drying agent and in the synthesis of ...

In the gas phase, alcohols are more acidic than in water. [35] In DMSO , alcohols (and water) have a p K a of around 29–32. As a consequence, alkoxides (and hydroxide) are powerful bases and nucleophiles (e.g., for the Williamson ether synthesis ) in this solvent.

According to a new study published in Neurology, poor sleep is linked to a higher risk of dementia. Neurologists explain the link—and how to prevent dementia.
Methanol is the simpler molecule, and ethanol can be made from methanol. Methanol can be produced industrially from nearly any biomass, including animal waste, or from carbon dioxide and water or steam by first converting the biomass to synthesis gas in a gasifier. It can also be produced in a laboratory using electrolysis or enzymes. [1]
