Abstract:

Romania, enrolled in the EU's climate change mitigation provisions, has as its target the production of renewable energy (24% of total energy by 2020). The less explored aspect is the production of second-generation bioethanol, although lignocellulosic raw material exists. It is found that plant waste, ie secondary production of field crops and energy crops, which complements cropland in less productive areas and at different stages of degradation. The current level of knowledge through reuse / recycling gives them multiple uses (eg bioethanol). The proposed analysis is based on extensive bibliographic studies in the field, interpreted by site specificity. Current and official statistics are consulted. As a result, a quantitative assessment of the lignocellulosics from the field ash, resulting as waste from agriculture, is made and the annual potential of arable bioethanol is determined.
