Abstract
⺠Simulation of ethanol and biogas process from spruce wood was performed by Aspen plus®. ⺠The economical feasibility of the process was studied by Aspen IPE. ⺠The results showed that NMMO pretreatment is a cost efficient process. ⺠Solvent preparation and its recycling showed crucial effects on the process economy. ⺠The process for 200,000 tons wood per year required M⬠58.3 total capital investment. ⺠The production cost of ethanol is calculated to be â¬/l 0.44.
