In order to produce enough sugar needed for the demand of such a large industry, farmers would have to grow loads more sugar, thus growing less other crops. So then the price for everything else would rocket because there would be so much less of it.
Not sure about alkenes though.
Other answer:
Advantage to producing it from sugar is that it's renewable and is very pure ethanol, the disadvantages are what the person above said and that it has to be made in batches. An advantage for alkenes is that it is continuous and fast to make, however, the alkene disadvantages are that the ethanol that it produces can be impure and it isn't renewable as ultimately it comes from crude oil.
Brazil produces ethanol mainly from sugarcane. The sugarcane is crushed to extract the juice, which is then fermented and distilled to produce ethanol. The country has been a leader in ethanol production due to its favorable climate for sugarcane cultivation and government policies supporting ethanol as a renewable fuel source.
Ethanol requires oxygen to burn. During the combustion process, ethanol reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and heat.
Adding sodium hydride to ethanol would produce sodium ethoxide and hydrogen gas. Sodium hydride is a strong base and will react with ethanol to form the ethoxide salt and release hydrogen gas as a byproduct.
Ethanol is first oxidised to acetaldehyde which can be further oxidised to acetic acid
The heat of reaction for ethanol fermentation from glucose is exothermic, meaning it releases heat. This is because the process of fermentation involves breaking down glucose to produce ethanol and carbon dioxide, which releases energy in the form of heat.

advantages: our body can produce more red blood cells

they produce khara
This media allows you to see and hear the information, making it easier to retain. The disadvantages are that it takes longer to produce.
The advantages of technology transfer is that China can mass produce United States nuclear apparatus and sell it back for cheaper prices. The main disadvantage is there are compromises to US security.

Sorry, I tried asking the same question but got no replies, do you mean alkane or alkene???------Alkene: hydrocarbons with the general chemical formula CnH2n; the old synonym is olefins.
No pure ethanol produces no CO2 Emmissions but they will produce NOx emmissions
They had factories to produce lots of weapons, however they lacked adaquate farming. A commodity of which the south was abundant.
Not really any major advantages other than the fact they produce quiet a lot of energy, the disadvantages are they produce lots of greenhouse gases.
