Cannabis of course is addressed as marijuana and pot. Usually 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 would 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 over the world it does make sense to look into its use for the making of ethanol.
If cannabis can be produced into Ethanol then we need to modify it to have great results better and use those genetic differences which allow for low water in production to insure that and now we don’t get price spikes during times of drought in the ethanol we use for principal interest. Additionally if the plant can be used to “get high” then i found modify it so that wont occur or that the leaching into the soil or waterways does not contain high levels of THC as it would certainly be problematic.
If we further modify this cannabis weed then i found make it with terminating seeds until we know what we have done, other wise it turn into a “super weed” and take over natural cannabis along with close genetic species of weeds. In a shopping think tank recently a gentleman mentioned that;
“Ethanol/bio diesel will likely to be the fuel involving the future for that rotary, eccentric crank, 4 and 2 cycle engines running 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 pollution.”
