Studies having to do with the production and utilization
of ethanol are no exception, whether they deal with aspects of the technology which take place on local farms, in the research laboratories, factories, or where the products and byproducts are used.
Consider a field trip to a site like one of those listed below when dealing with S/T/S or energy topics including ethanol. If you can't visit these specific locations, perhaps they will suggest sites
near you that offer similar opportunities for field trips.
