Bioethanol from cotton-stalks


CSIR’s Scientists from National Institute for Interdisciplinary Science and Technology (CSIR-NIIST), Thiruvananthapuram have deveed  to turn waste into wealth.

The new technique will help to produce bioethanol, a clean fuel from cotton stalk wastes. Converting the agro-residues such as cotton stalks and wheat and rice husks etc to ethanol reduces the food vs fuel competition.


India has about 9.4 million hectares under cotton cultivation and every hectare generates 2 million tonnes of cotton stalk wastes.
