Making Fuel out of Sugar Canes

Post by deleted-112379 »

Our plan is to extract ethanol out of Sugar Cane.

We are planning on fermentation a plant that's high in glucose to make ethanol which could be used as a bio fuel.
We want to know which plants besides sugar canes are high in glucose.

Hi,

Here are some additional plants that are high in sugar, although not necessarily glucose: http://www.gardenguides.com/88414-fruit ... sugar.html . Sugar beets are also high in glucose.
