Acetogens have several advantages to yeast: they convert all xylose (C 5 ) and glucose (C 6 ) sugars and tolerate all breakdown products of biomass; they operate in harsh environments; and they produce no CO 2 as a by-product. For the ethanol process, the acetic acid is then converted to an ester which is then hydrogenated to make ethanol.
