Cannabis of course is addressed as marijuana and pot. Can associated with drug users and stoners. But after 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 will not do drugs or smoke pot so this article is without consideration of the stoners in the world or their potential support of this plant for ethanol. If cannabis grows so well all around the world it does make sense to look into its use for the making of ethanol.
If cannabis can be manufactured into Ethanol then we need to modify it to be successful better and use those genetic differences which support low water in production to insure that and now we don’t get price spikes in times of drought in the ethanol we use for fuel. 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 will have to make it with terminating seeds until we know the things we have done, other wise it grow to be a “super weed” and take over natural cannabis any other close genetic types of weeds. In a price think tank recently a gentleman mentioned that;
“Ethanol/bio diesel is going to be 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 an additional.”
