Bio-ethylene is produced from bioethanol, which is a liquid biofuel that is widely utilized in the transportation sector. Sugar from sugarcane is highly utilized raw material to produce bio ethylene mainly in India and Brazil. In Brazil, production of bio-ethylene is economically competitive owing to the wider availability of cheap sugarcane feedstock. Sugar from sugarcane, sugar beets, and sweet sorghum are quite easy to break down since the sucrose is a disaccharide, which can be further directly fermented into bio ethanol utilizing yeast. Sugar based bio-ethylene production is estimated to save about 60% of fossil energy as compared to petrochemical production since the process can further produce electricity. The production costs of sugarcane-based bio-ethylene is also very low. The greenhouse gas emissions caused for using fossil fuel can also be minimized while utilizing bio ethylene in petrochemicals industry. Due to these benefits, most of the industries are adopting bio ethylene for various applications...Read more
