Australia: Sugar set for ‘Energycane’ Reinvention
Sugarcane is ideal for renewables because it is fast-growing with abundant biomass.
Besides sugar and cellulose, its hemicelluloses (or the so called 5-carbon sugars, Pentoses) are an ideal feedstock to make furfural (one of the oldest bio-based chemical building blocks).
