Bioethanol is a clear, colorless liquid produced from biomass by hydrolysis and sugar fermentation or using the chemical process of reacting ethylene with steam. It is biodegradable, less toxic, and does not cause environmental pollution as compared to conventional fuels. Consequently, it is gaining traction as a petrol substitute for road transport vehicles around the world. It is blended with petrol without modifying engine designs, which results in reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and air pollution. Presently, the ongoing research and development activities to produce bioethanol fuel using municipal solid waste are escalating the demand for bioethanol worldwide.

Bioethanol Market Trends:
The suburbanization trend and boosting sales of passenger vehicles across the globe on account of inflating disposable incomes represent one of the key factors influencing the market positively. Moreover, the growing environmental concerns among individuals are driving the demand for bioethanol as an alternative to fossil fuels. Apart from this, improving road transport networks are resulting in the increasing use of commercial vehicles. As these vehicles contribute disproportionately to air pollution and congestion, government bodies of numerous countries are implementing stringent regulations to minimize pollutant emissions and encourage the adoption of bioethanol. In addition, bioethanol finds application in existing engines to reduce the amount of carbon monoxide, thereby assisting in improving the overall air quality. Furthermore, as it is skin-friendly and harmless for the health and environment, bioethanol is widely used as a carrier and solvent in cosmetics and personal care products across the globe. It is also employed in the pharmaceutical industry as a major ingredient for formulating drugs, cough syrups, medicinal capsules, and disinfectants. Moreover, it is gaining traction in the food and beverage (F&B) industry as a flavor enhancer.
