Bioethanol generated through the steam explosion process is typically used as a renewable fuel alternative or fuel additive in transportation. It may also serve as a solvent or intermediate in chemical synthesis and pharmaceuticals. When incorporating data for bioethanol produced by steam explosion into a life cycle assessment, ensure that the system boundary includes energy consumption and emissions from the steam generation and explosion. If ethanol production interlinks with agriculture (e.g., using crop residues), consider the upstream impacts of agricultural processes. Exclude petrol displacement or credit if produced bioethanol is used purely as a chemical, not as a fuel.
