Cannabis of course is known as marijuana and pot. Usually associated with drug users and stoners. But if you 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 would not do drugs or smoke pot so this article is without consideration of your stoners in the world or their potential support of this plant for ethanol. If cannabis grows so well all around the globe it does make sense to look into its use for the making of ethanol.
If cannabis can be produced into Ethanol then came across modify it to be successful better and use those genetic differences which support low water in production to insure that and we don’t get price spikes during times of drought in the ethanol we use for oil. Additionally if the plant can be used to “get high” then we’ve got to modify it so that wont 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 will have to make it with terminating seeds until we know anything you have done, other wise it develop into a “super weed” and take over natural cannabis as well close genetic type of weeds. In an online think tank recently a gentleman mentioned that;
“Ethanol/bio diesel almost certainly the fuel involving the future for that rotary, eccentric crank, 4 and 2 cycle engines that run our cars boats trains and generator sets etc. Probably it burns far cleaner than the crude oil based hydrocarbon heavy fuels we use at present, and will minimize the contamination.”
