Oct 7, 2015 10:45 AM ET

DuPont Industrial Biosciences is creating clean cellulosic ethanol from biomass such as crop waste into something useful. The Boy Who Made Something Out Of Anything is the story of a young boy whose insatiable curiosity drives him to create wonderful inventions out of things that have been overlooked or cast aside. Like the boy in the film, DuPont has found a way to transform something we haven't used into something useful. Our new cellulosic ethanol plant in Nevada, Iowa is using corn stover to create biofuels as a sustainable energy alternative driving the bio-based economy.
