Abstract/Description: | Biofuel produced from the plant biomass shows greater alternative source of renewable energy and better than the fossil fuels in reducing the greenhouse gas emission from the burning of fossil fuels. Sugarcane is one of the best candidates for biofuel production which has been used successfully to produce bioethanol extensively in Brazil and also in other countries worldwide. Sugarcane is a perennial monocot with C4 photosynthesis, having a fast growth rate without any serious maintenance and can be harvested four to five times by multiplying using the ratoons. Sugarcane is one of the primary crops as a source for both food and bioenergy, with Brazil, India, and China contributing more than 60% of the world’s total production. The diminishing resources of fossil fuel coupled with augmented research interest for an environmentally sustainable and renewable source of energy in the form of sugarcane. Industrial levels of biofuel production have been achieved in Brazil and the USA, however more concerted efforts needs to be directed towards deployment of second-generation biofuel production by utilizing lignocellulosic biomass. |
