Abstract: | To evaluate the environmental, economic, energy performance of biomass ethanol fuel in China and to support the decision-making
of biomass ethanol energy policy, an assessment method of life cycle 3E (economy, environment, energy) was applied to the
three biomass ethanol fuel cycle alternatives, which includes cassava-based, corn-based and wheat-based ethanol fuel. The
assessments provide a comparison of the economical performance, energy efficiency and environmental impacts of the three alternatives.
And the development potential of the three alternatives in China was examined. The results are very useful for the Chinese
government to make decisions on the biomass ethanol energy policy, and some advises for the decision-making of Chinese government
were given.
