when it has been burned it generates some energy that energy will be used

More details:

Ethanol will burn. When it is exposed to air, it will burn. During the depression in the 1930s, a number of farmers would make moonshine and use it instead of gasoline to operate their machinery. This gave people the idea to use it today. Ethanol is mixed with gasoline. It burns when the gasoline burns. It also dissolves the water that used to build up in gasoline tanks and make them rust out. However, since gasoline consists of longer chain carbohydrates, it contains more energy in each unit of volume that does an equal volume of ethanol. On the other hand, ethanol burns cleaner than gasoline and has a higher octane. During the 1930s, all of the tubing carrying gasoline was made with copper. Then it was possible to run any car on 100% ethanol. Today much of that tubing is made with synthetic materials. Today's materials will last longer with gasoline except that too much ethanol will dissolve them

What are some advantages of biofuel?

there are many good things about biofuel. here is a list: 1. it can be used on any diesel engine, with little or no modifications. 2. it is carbon neutral, because just as much CO2 that goes into making it comes out when burned. 3. it is cleaner than fossil diesel, because there is no sulfur in it; unlike fossil fuels. 4. you can go longer on a gallon of biofuel (or fossil diesel) than with gas or ethonal. 5. unlike ethonal or hydrogen, the infrastructure for transport is already there. 6. a lot less energy goes into making biofuel than ethonal or hydrogen. but there is a con: the plants that produce biofuel must be grown on fertile soil, and produces very little fuel per acre. that will change, however, with algae oil and jatropha oil, because both are inedible, can be grown just about anywhere, and produce a lot of fuel per acre.
