Abstract

Biofuels such as ethanol from sugar cane and cellulose ‘waste’ are theoretically sustainable, as their combustion releases no more CO2 than is absorbed during production. Even so, they are also controversial, because they are believed to be grown at the expense of food crops, or because areas of rainforest are believed to the cleared for them. However, as far as sustainable energy forms are concerned, it is all hands on deck to halt climate change, and TU Delft is one of those hands.
