Ethanol = cooling tower ...global warming if you believe in that ......using diesel to plant, spray, harvest and fertilize something we cannot even EAT!
@@michaelladue5655 Global warming? Is that the fairy tail you been brainwashed with an programed into belief? Yeah the uranium in the ground water out west just happen to get there mysteriously? That was not your fault for use of electricity or charging cars? Ethanol taking food from the plate as the USA will have no food in about another 9 months an probably no medicine. That ethanol so important.
It's cool to see ethanol plant from the outside but really cool to see how it works on the inside.....the one thing I thought was surprising was how much storage they have especially when trains can be gone for a month
Thanks for sharing this with us. Continue making videos like this one to show us how everything works with the farming industry. It's about time that you 2 settled down to make a great family.
This is a neat process to see. As a former home brewer, it was interesting to hear about the process. This video was also interesting because I haul lots of ethanol at work on the railroad.
I live in Plant City about 30 minutes from Tampa Port and it’s cool to see where our ethanol comes from! We are a major train route in Plant City so I’ve seen many many trains of what I’m sure is ethanol coming through.
I'll believe that this is worthwhile when I seen all of the trucks, tractors, combines, and grain driers involved in corn production running on neat ethanol.
I live in Tampa and I have been past the 30th Street ethanol facility down at the port so I think it's interesting that I just learned that those rail cars at that facility come all the way down from the facility you're at right now.
Making money turning food into fuel while millions starve. You can see a government bought off farmer from a mile away. Not sure how you sleep at night. May the Lord open your eyes to the damage your doing. Amen.
@@tira2145 first off, I got no clue what the government has to do with your point here. Second, this is feed corn, so no it’s not the kind your buy in the grocery store. Most of ours goes to animal feed, which is in fact for food. It’s typically about 65% feed and 35% ethanol. It really just depends on the price. If you’re going to chastise people for their business decisions, maybe you should shut up and take a look at yourself first. 40% of food is the US is wasted. This is not a supply problem is a distribution problem. Maybe know what you’re talking about before you attack somebody.
@@Beyonder8335 the government has FORCED this worthless product on the American people. Instead of just growing ethanal corn, you could be growing actual food. So yes it does effect food prices and availability. I can tell that your one of those farmer that lives off the government. 31 trillion in debt, and the farmers want more. The hell with the actual workers who work hard. We can't all work 6 months a year and never sweat in a ac controlled tractor. Do you know how to bankrupt a farmer? Nail his mailbox shut so the government can't send him bailout money. A starving woman told me that one.
@@tira2145 you do realize that ethanol corn and feed corn are the same thing right? Also, if you’re referring to growing sweet corn, that’s a completely different process. In addition, the ethanol is extracted, and then the by product is used for animal feed. Which produces meat. Which is food. Like I said, understand the process itself before you start going all keyboard warrior not having any real experience. And that doesn’t change how much of a difference would be made if we didn’t throw out 40% of our food
@@tira2145 I can also tell you know nothing about the reality of modern agriculture, especially if you think we only work 6 months a year and never break a sweat. Sure theres been big leaps in automation, but there is still a shit ton of manual labor involved. Do concaves in a combine change themselves? Do grainbins get cleaned automatically? I literally spent my day 50 feet in the air hauling parts up to our grain leg for repairs.
Ryan and Hannah(now promoted to camera girl and wife) great video! That was very informative especially seeing the production flowchart! Good to know what happens to all of the byproducts as well!
Thanks for doing and sharing, I see those rail cars or similar in unit trains daily across the river from me. Seems like a very small crew running the show.
nice video ryan and hanna. makes me wonder if those folks dont make some cornshine on the side. after all the have to add fuel to make it not food grade.
A+++ video HFW!!! Thank you Gary and Monica!!! Very, very informative tour!!! NOW... if they could only develop an ethanol based fuel that DOESN'T clog and destroy gas engines! Next video from Dyersville... a How Farms Work Preseason baseball game at Field of Dreams!!! 🙂
I wish they would send more ethanol based products east. You'd be surprised but here on the NC/SC border it's impossible to find anthing more than your standard 10%blended ethanol fuels. I personally use E30-E85 fuels, and know many others that do as well. Maybe it's a state issue as you can find it all over Virginia and Pennsylvania. With that being said we sure would love some.
Great video Ryan and Hanna!!! Hope Hanna can do a few videos of how she helps keeping the boys going at harvest time. We all know the boys can't do it with out them. lol
Hey, that was neat tour, here's the but in Florida the humidity is so high with ethanol on the gas it sucks in water like you and believe your mower you have to empty the fuel after you're done using it you actually have to buy new fuel every time you want to use it that day it's just the mower just don't work with the amount of humidity and water in the fuel
It is good to know the 'food v fuel' argument is bunk, this is a great addition to the feed process, makes better feed and we get fuel from it. I would like to know if the process produces as much energy in the ethanol as it uses to make it. farming, trucking, storing, processing, and shipping take a lot of energy. and if it takes energy to make ethanol then it cant make sense.
I have a 2010 Toyota Tundra and it will burn E85 but the fuel mileage is not nearly as good as low blend of gas and ethanol. Here in South Central Ky E85 is cheaper but with the difference in mileage I don’t think you save anything, it’s just a thought.
Great Video Ryan, Good to see Hannah helping with the Video, I am curious to know what model Canon she was using to record the Video and the Mic? thanks for sharing
Not exactly sure for this location, but typically they use natural gas for their heating type stuff. As far as electricity goes, here in Iowa we run about 70% wind energy.
@@Beyonder8335 wind energy is not reliable, and takes years to break even. Huge use of both steel and concrete. With all the energy consumption making ethanal start to delivery, do they actually use more than they create?
Good video, informative. Questions: does corn for Ethanol affect price of corn food products? What is the over-all cost of producing Ethanol and adding it to fuel, is the process subsidized? Any studies of Ethanol impacts related to it's use in equipment, additional maintenance, etc.
Ethanol has a weird effect on the price of food, it takes corn off the food and mill market, so foods which are related to that are going to be a little more expensive, however alot of the byproducts of Ethanol can be used for feeding livestock which provides more meat avaiblity. that being said, its only using the kernals and not the whole crop, some corn is just used for silage production and ethanol eats into that kind of production for feed. also corn is subsidized which helps keep the price of food down partly, though with nitrogen fertilization cost goes up massively. Ethanol does have negative impacts on older cars and equipment built before the early 2000's. however using different plastics prevents these parts from failing and its posable to update older equipment to have zero negative impacts on ICE engines. the exact numbers do vary for most questions, but it is cost effective in the long run. and when compared to leaded gas, way better.
No, yellow corn #2, which is most corn farmers grow, is not for human consumption. It is either used for ethanol or used in animal feeding. No, ethanol is no longer subsidized and it hasn't been for years.
I was curious if there was a bad smell? Cedar Rapids Iowa has a ethanol plant (ADM) and it is the worst smell you can imagine. I believe it also produces corn syrup. So maybe it is the corn syrup that actually stinks I’m not sure it’s been 40 years since I live there. They also have a quaker oats plant which that part of town smells like oatmeal.
The plant in this video is considered a “dry mill” plant. I’m guessing the ADM Plant you are referring to is a “wet mill” plant. A wet mill plant makes numerous different products like corn starch, high fructose corn syrup, etc. There is an ADM wet mill plant about 30 miles from me and at times it doesn’t smell great. They must have made some changes because it doesn’t smell nearly as bad as it did years ago. Ethanol is not usually the product they are after unless the economics make sense.
Nothing was said how many millions of gallons of water it takes to make the final product! All so how much energy it takes to produce the final product.
Yep, when you add up all the tractor fuel, the grain trucks, the electricity, the train going to Tampa at 20 mph, and empty all the way back. They are using more fuel/energy than what they create. It's amazing what you can waste when the government continues to bail you out.
@@PaulsonFarms really? From the tilling the land, to planting, to fertilizer, to spraying poison, to harvest, to grain trucks, to enormous amounts of energy used at the plant, to using a train all the way to Tampa, and all the way back to Iowa? No fuel is used. I heard crackheads on the cops show come up with a better lie than that.
@@tira2145 well the facts are that its a completely carbon neutral program. You fail to realize that the US corn crop sequesters more co2 a year then the amazon rain forest does. That is exactly why ethanol is carbon neutral.
Great attempt. Didn't get jack squat of half of it because of the sound. And do they really have 2 million gal. tanks because their trucks use a month to get back to fill up after dumping their tanks??

Always great to see how things are made. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for making this video. I am considering taking a position at an ethanol plant and this gave me a good overview of the process.
Great video - reminds me of my days working as a chemical process safety inspector for the UK government’s safety inspectorate.
Wow. What a process. Very educating.
Very interesting!!! Thanks for sharing your tour with us Ryan & Hanna 👌👍👊.
Thanks Ryan and Hannah for taking us along on the tour with you it was very informative to see the process of how it’s made 👍🇺🇸
Sometimes you have to go inside to see how a business is run It is pretty cool inside that Ethanol plant.
That got is very knowledgeable and well spoken.
Yes that was very interesting and appreciated you doing it.
Very interesting. Great footage and information. Thank you!

Ethanol serves 2 good purposes. A market for corn and DDGS for cattle farms. Might be even better for vehicles than MTBE, but not small engines.

is the ethanol actually needed to sustain a national fuel supply? and... does it really help with the environmental concerns?
It contributes to a significant percentage. It's cleaner burning too. So yes to both of your questions.
