This project capitalizes on the previous success of Greenfield Ethanol (GFE) researchers who have been working on developing cost effective process to enzymatically hydrolyze and ferment lignocellulose biomass into ethanol, culminating in the development of a patent-pending equipment - a highly modified twin-screw extruder (TSE) - used to execute its pretreatment process, and to recover the clean sugars in an economic way. In addition to offering a pretreatment platform, GreenField's twin screw extruder also offers a continuous solid-liquid separation capability, that has multiple, potential industrial applications.

该项目利用了绿地乙醇(GFE)研究人员之前的成功，他们一直致力于开发具有成本效益的工艺，将木质纤维素生物质酶解和发酵成乙醇，最终开发出一种正在申请专利的设备-高度改进的双螺杆挤出机(TSE)-用于执行其预处理过程，并以经济的方式回收清洁糖。除了提供前处理平台，格林菲尔德的双螺杆挤出机还提供连续的固液分离能力，具有多种潜在的工业应用。
