Is BioEthanol worth it for Hydrogen production ?

Or should I stick with anaerobic digesters ?

With anaerobic digesters it's pretty straightforward : corn to fuel gas and fuel gas to hydrogen

But for Ethanol it's : corn to corn mash and soybean to cooking oil, then corn mash + cooking oil to ethanol, then ethanol to diesel, then diesel to naphta, then naphta to fuel gas and finally fuel gas to hydrogen

The Ethanol route is more complicated but it seems to require less raw products for the same output

Have any of you experimented with this ?

Or is Ethanol only worth it for diesel ?
