Biofuel and Advanced Biofuel [PDF]

open access: yesUCLA Journal of Environmental Law and Policy, 2015
A. Ethanol From Cellulose Cellulosic ethanol is the most promising second-generation biofuel, but the cost of production limits its viability, though costs are declining. (203) In order to qualify for a renewable identification number for cellulosic ethanol, production must meet requirements that include lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions, as ...
