Cannabis of course is addressed as marijuana and pot. It is associated with drug users and stoners. But if you can put away that stigma, we find that cannabis has four times the cellulose value as corn, making it a potentially good plant for ethanol production.
Now then, personally I will not do drugs or smoke pot so this article is without consideration for the stoners in the world or their potential support of this plant for ethanol. If cannabis grows so well all around the globe it does make sense to look into its use for the making of ethanol.
If cannabis can come in into Ethanol then our nation modify it to have great results better and use those genetic differences which allow for low water in production to insure that unfortunately we cannot get price spikes during times of drought in the ethanol we use for oil. Additionally if the plant can be used to “get high” then we’ve got to modify it so it doesn’t occur or that the leaching into the soil or waterways does not contain high levels of THC as it that i see problematic.
If we further modify this cannabis weed then we need to make it with terminating seeds until we know cures have done, other wise it grow to be a “super weed” and take over natural cannabis because close genetic varieties of weeds. In a shopping think tank recently a gentleman mentioned that;
“Ethanol/bio diesel almost certainly the fuel regarding the future for the rotary, eccentric crank, 4 and 2 cycle engines that run our cars boats trains and generator sets etc. I am aware it burns far cleaner than the crude oil based hydrocarbon heavy fuels we use at present, and will minimize the contamination.”
