There is a rising need for vehicles on alternate fuels and one such eco-friendly bio-fuel is Ethanol. It is manufactured from plant residue such as sugarcane molasses and sorghum and is significantly cleaner than fossil fuels. Ethanol is basically a oxygenated fuel blend of alcohol and gasoline which gives a higher octane number at lower costs and has cleaner combustion too. Using Ethanol as a fuel reduces the emission of Carbon Monoxide by up to 35 per cent. There is a significant reduction in the emission of Sulphur Dioxide and particulate matter too. Since, it is manufactured from renewable plant resources, Ethanol is bio-degradable and increased usage of Ethanol can reduce the import of petroleum on a larger scale as well.
