Would you pay $ 10,000 for a machine that would make ethanol for as little as $ 1.00 per gallon?
Anybody with some technical knowledge and a little motivation can put together a small scale Ethanol manufacturing process (100-200 gal/month) in a small area of a back yard. The problem becomes where do you get the raw materials? You have to buy some kind of grain product to feed the digester, and when you do the math, your labor and the cost of raw materials will discourage home manufacture. Large scale livestock operations are having a high degree of success becoming self sufficient creating Ethanol and or Methane from the waste byproducts... The process is as old as beer, the problem is the availability of stuff to ferment and distill....
