Hello,
A small problem that is not taken into account in the article is that the reaction to produce, the ethic alcohol already produces CO2
(Ethanol has been made since ancient times by the fermentation of sugars. All beverage ethanol and more than half of industrial ethanol is still made by this process. Simple sugars are the raw material. Zymase, an enzyme from yeast, changes the simple sugars into ethanol and carbon dioxide. The fermentation reaction, represented by the simple equation
C6H12O6 2 CH3CH2OH + 2 CO2)
Nor do they talk about what becomes of the carbon in alcohol
;)
It is true that the corn allows to fix the cO2 so it becomes a renewable energy quickly ....
A+
