GHG emission analysis of road transport
| Stage | Distance (km) | Fuel intensity (L·t−1·km−1) [40–42] | Carbon emission factor [31, 40–42] | Conversion coefficient to ethanol | GHG emission (kg CO2 eq/t ethanol)a |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sweet sorghum transport | 88 | 0.05 | 0.85 kg CO2 eq /L | 16 | 59.84 |
| Ethanol transport | 100 | 0.05 | 0.85 kg CO2 eq /L | 1 | 4.25 |
| Summary | 188 | – | – | – | 64.09 |
a GHG emissions are the energy inputs of transportation times carbon emission factors and conversion coefficient
