The most prevalent use of bioethanol is not as a fuel in its pure form but rather as an additive to petrol. Conventional processes, however, fully purify bioethanol prior to blending it in petrol. This is an energy-intensive and costly process and is typically achieved through distillation. MJ/L of ethanol produced.
