Cannabis of course is known as marijuana and pot. Always be associated with drug users and stoners. But when we 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 additionally wouldn’t 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 come in into Ethanol then we will need to modify it to be successful better and use those genetic differences which permit low water in production to insure that we do not get price spikes whenever you have drought in the ethanol we use for principal interest. Additionally if the plant can be used to “get high” then discovered modify it so which don’t occur or that the leaching into the soil or waterways does not contain high levels of THC as it will be 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 as well close genetic species of weeds. In a shopping think tank recently a gentleman mentioned that;
“Ethanol/bio diesel is to be the fuel involving the future for the rotary, eccentric crank, 4 and 2 cycle engines that run our cars boats trains and generator sets etc. I see it burns far cleaner than the crude oil based hydrocarbon heavy fuels we use at present, and will minimize the smog.”
