twice as efficient making ethanol. Not sure if that is a good thing or no.....Keeps us tied to the fossil/plant fuel tit.
What?
No, no no I'm not paying. You get... so go buy an pay, buy yer own booze!

is waste from food production. Surely it is carbon neutral.
@wolfgang59
I was thinking about the CO2 going into atmosphere.
I think a real carbon neutral fuel would be hydrogen, MOF's are getting more density of H2 storage but of course then you have to have carbon neutral hydrogen manufacturing on industrial scale.
I keep waiting for electrics to come out with solar cell paint, the whole car as a solar cell. That should extend distance ten percent or so and would allow quite a bit of recharging just parked on a sunny day.
If you drive say 10 klicks one way, so you get there and the cells charge the batteries for free, no need to be hooked to a plug.
Of course then there is always 'Mr Fusion' if you remember that bit🙂

@wolfgang59 saidMost of the Fuel Ethanol Comes from Food (Corn, Sugar Cane,...) so Carbon neutrality is bought with using Food in a (rather inefficient you use 1 sugar molecule with six Carbons to create one Ethanol molecule with two carbons) way to create a low Quality fuel. The Research sonhouse reffered to is makaing a big Progress towards a more sustainable balance.
