خلاصه مقاله:

Presently, shortage of petroleum reservoirs and pollution of the environment has forced countries to search for other fuel resources. Butanol and Ethanol (BE) are of great importance as fuels that are mainly produced by petrochemical processes.

This article provides some necessary information on raw materials, medium characteristics and processes used for enhanced BE production.
