Cannabis of course is regarded as marijuana and pot. It is 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 do 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 have great results better and use those genetic differences which support low water in production to insure that and now we don’t get price spikes during times of drought in the ethanol we use for principal interest. Additionally if the plant can be used to “get high” then we have to modify it so that will not occur or that the leaching into the soil or waterways does not contain high levels of THC as it would be problematic.
If we further modify this cannabis weed then we will have to make it with terminating seeds until we know what you may have done, other wise it turn into a “super weed” and take over natural cannabis because close genetic type of weeds. In net think tank recently a gentleman mentioned that;
“Ethanol/bio diesel are the fuel regarding the future for that rotary, eccentric crank, 4 and 2 cycle engines running 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 smog.”
