• Global Decarbonisation Potential of Agri-Residue-Derived Bioethanol

  

  The transition to low-carbon energy systems necessitates the rapid decarbonisation of the transportation sector, which accounts for nearly one-fifth of global CO₂ emissions. Second-generation (2G) bioethanol, produced from agricultural residues such as rice straw, corn stover, and sugarcane bagasse, offers a promising, sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, with the added advantage of circumventing the food-versus-fuel…
