The lectures are designed to cover the complete processing areas, consisting of raw materials through distillation and coproducts. To support the program, laboratory and functional demonstrations are conducted at the NCERC. Troubleshooting and case studies are also discussed, along with the needs for proper documentation control and baseline studies. The Operators’ School is designed to help with the education of the workforce in the ethanol industry. The goal is to educate people that have the day-to-day responsibility to produce ethanol most effectively and efficiently as possible. The idea is to have the course quarterly to educate as many people as possible. This school offers a practical solution for the education need in the industry.
