A Sweet Future
Using sugar cane for ethanol
Paul Murphy / WWL-TV Reporter
Sugar cane may have a sweeter future, thanks to Dr. Ed Richard and his staff at the U.S. Department of Agriculture research center in Houma. They are blending different varieties of cane, to find the best combination for ethanol production.

Groundbreaking Study Finds that Certain Ethanol Blends can Provide Better Fuel Economy than Gasoline
"Optimal Blend" Is Likely E20 or E30;
Coalition Calls for Further Government Research
Sioux Falls, SD (December 5, 2007)- Research findings released today show that mid-range ethanol blends - fuel mixtures with more ethanol than E10 but less than E85 - can in some cases provide better fuel economy than regular unleaded gasoline, even in standard, non-flex-fuel vehicles.
Previous assumptions held that ethanol's lower energy content directly correlates with lower fuel economy for drivers. Those assumptions were found to be incorrect. Instead, the new research strongly suggests that there is an "optimal blend level" of ethanol and gasoline - most likely E20 or E30 - at which cars will get better mileage than predicted based strictly on the fuel's per-gallon Btu content. The new study, cosponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy and the American Coalition for Ethanol (ACE), also found that mid-range ethanol blends reduce harmful tailpipe emissions.
