The emissions further drop to ~70% if we consider 2G ethanol which is produced using farm waste. Ethanol production from farm waste such as corn cob, rice husk, wheat straw and sugarcane bagasse, is known as second generation ethanol (2G). Depending on the raw material used for production, there are multiple generations of ethanol.
