Technical Economic Analysis of Bioethanol

Abstract:

Development and utilization of renewable energy alternative to traditional fossil energy is the most effective solutions to global energy crisis and sustainable development. According to theory of technical economic analysis, the technology and energy efficiency of bioethanol to produce liquid fuel was discussed and analysis by life cycle assessment, including production, greenhouse gas emission, as well as economic and social impacts. On this basis, according to the conditions and requirements of Chinese economic and social development, the policies and measures that should be taken by research, application and research priorities of bioethanol technology in China is proposed.
