NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) --

America's new war. This war on oil will employ techniques such as enzymatic hydrolysis and dry milling, instead of guns and battle-tanks. The combatants' weapons of choice will be switchgrass, wheat straw, corn and other material from the biomass.

The objective is clear: Get the world's biggest oil consumers weaned from their generations-old addiction to oil and establish the United States as a self-sufficient producer of energy from alternative sources.

But this war won't be without its perils, says the article.

This detailed report from CNN Money provides details on how the battle is planned to be fought.
