Bio-ethanol and the Church

Is Bio-ethanol and the Church an unlikely combination?  Well, I did wonder if the headline meant that the popemobile was going to be converted to alternative fuels.

But no, there are parts of the World there the two come together for a different reason, that reason being that the Catholic Church in the Philippines are concerned about the building of a bio-ethanol plant.

Read more about their “Bioethanol forum” on the One Alternative Energy Blog.

Brazil produces the most bio-ethanol

It seems that in the World of statistics, there is now a space for biofuels.  And the winner is… Brazil, who not produce the most bio-ethanol but also the most biodiesel.

According to articlesworld.com, they account for half the production of bio-ethanol on the planet!

With the USA in second place, how much of the market does the European production really have?

A good summary about bio-ethanol (in German)

If you can read German, then you might be interested to read a good summary of the bio-ethanol technology and availability on the ADAC website.  It covers the different types of bio-ethanol, their production, and discusses whether they are really CO2-neutral.

ADAC is Germany’s largest automobile club, with around 15 million members.
