Sawdust & Pulped wood can be fermented & distilled, but it takes special enzymes (And thus extra Cost)..
The company i work for has a subsiduary company that is working on ways of unlocking the cellulose structure for wood by-products. being we are a wood plantation company we want to make use of these by-products (eg sawdust, cut of branches, etc)
