A COMPARISON OF SWEET SORGHUM CULTIVARS AND MAIZE FOR ETHANOL PRODUCTION

(...) Thirteen sweet sorghum cultivars were compared with an adapted maize hybrid grown on clay loam soils (Aquic or Typic Hapludols) in a randomized complete block design in 1987 and 1988. The fermentable carbohydrate content, or Brix ( o B), of sorghum stalk sap was measured with a refractometer, and ethanol yields were calculated assuming 14.7 pounds fermentable carbohydrate per gallon ethanol. Ethanol yield from maize was calculated from the harvested grain assuming 22.4 Ib maize grain per gallon of ethanol. (...)
