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. In comparison, traditional yeast fermentation creates one molecule of CO 2 for every molecule of ethanol.
