Is ethanol carbon neutral or not?

No Ethanol is not carbon neutral as I am about to show you Photosynthesis: 6H2O + 6CO2 => C6H12O6 + 6O2 Fermentation: C6H12O6 => 2C2H5OH + 2CO2 Combustion: 2C2H5OH + 6O2 => 4CO2 + 6H2O by looking at this it would appear that Ethanol is carbon neutral because Photosynthesis uses 6CO2 per mole of glucose, fermentation and Combustion produce 2CO2 and 4CO2 making 6CO2 per mole of glucose but what makes ethanol not carbon neutral is that you have to burn fuel to grow and harvest the crops for fermentation, fermentation requires heat for the reaction to take place, heat comes from energy and energy comes from fossil fuels. ----====---- Only industrial scale ethanol fermentation requires additional heat. Fermentation is a biological process, in which yeast consuming sugars generates alcohol and heat. Small scale ethanol production with hand picked feedstock, is indeed Carbon Neutral.
