Thailand Ethanol Feedstock 1. Molasses (Sugar derivative) Sugarcane plantation area = ~ 1.

4 MT of molasses were used to make 488 M.Liter of ethanol. In 2013, ~ 2.7 MT out of 4.

28 million hectares = ~ 12,768 sq.km = ~ 8.10% arable land in Thailand In 2012, 0.

9 Thailand Ethanol Feedstock 1. Molasses (Sugar derivative) Sugarcane plantation area = ~ 1.35 million hectares = ~ 13,457 sq.km = ~ 8.54% arable land in Thailand In 2012, 2 MT out of 4.4 MT of molasses were used to make 488 M.Liter of ethanol. In 2013, ~ 2.7 MT out of 4.5 MT of molasses were used to make 629 ML of ethanol 2. Cassava Cassava plantation area = ~ 1.28 million hectares = ~ 12,768 sq.km = ~ 8.10% arable land in Thailand In 2012, 0.44 MT out of 25 MT of cassava were used to make 73 M.Liter of ethanol. In 2013 : ~ 1.68 MT out of 28 MT of cassava were used to make 264 ML of ethanol 9
