Thanks for covering both benefits and challenges of flex fuel. Excellent case study👏👏 But with so many options each having it's own pros and cons it's getting kinda confusing. VIDEO SUGGESTION- Compare 1. Traditional petrodiesel vehicles 2. Flex fuel vehicles 3. Electric vehicles 4. Hydrogen vehicles Based on 1. Economics 2. Environmental impact 3. Government policies 4. Worldwide adoption
One way to manage the demand side of ethanol powered automobiles can be to chart a roadmap for consumers explaining how the increase in price of one vehicle is almost null because the petrol will be cheaper and ultimately the money they would otherwise spend on a fully petrol driven car will be far less than ethanol. This is an assumption that can be beautified for a layman’s dictionary. #amazingvideo ❤
Pretty detailed and informative!! Nice work think school!!🤘 My next question: What is the update on hydrogen fuel?! India has been betting on it for quite sometime now
The govt is actually working on hydrogen vehicles for commercial purposes like lorries and buses The production for hydrogen fuel is also under working by reliance industry.
While ethanol-fueled cars have some advantages, they also come with several downsides: 1. Reduced fuel economy: Ethanol contains less energy per gallon compared to gasoline, leading to lower fuel efficiency. This means you'll need to refuel more often, offsetting some of the cost savings. 2. Limited availability: Not all gas stations offer ethanol blends, so finding a convenient refueling station can be challenging in some areas. 3. Corrosion and engine damage: Ethanol can be corrosive to certain engine components and fuel system parts, potentially leading to increased maintenance costs and shorter engine lifespan if the vehicle isn't designed to handle ethanol blends. 4. Lower energy content: Ethanol has a lower energy density than gasoline, which can result in reduced overall vehicle performance, especially in terms of acceleration and power. 5. Water absorption: Ethanol is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs water from the environment. This can lead to phase separation in the fuel tank and cause engine problems, especially in older vehicles. 6. Land use and environmental concerns: The production of ethanol often involves growing crops like corn, which can lead to land-use changes and environmental issues, such as deforestation and increased pesticide use. 7. Limited range: Due to ethanol's lower energy content, vehicles may have a shorter driving range on a full tank compared to gasoline. 8. Price fluctuations: Ethanol prices can be volatile, depending on factors like crop yields and government policies, which can make budgeting for fuel costs more unpredictable. 9. Cold weather performance: Ethanol can be problematic in very cold temperatures, as it can cause fuel system components to freeze or lead to difficulties starting the engine. Overall, while ethanol can offer some benefits, it also presents challenges and trade-offs that consumers and automakers need to consider when choosing a fuel source.
Great study, but i think to much dependancy on ethanol using such a water intensive crop such as sugarcane can prove to be devastating, instead we should try to focus more on Biogas

This is one of the best episodes as I am currently studying Food Biotechnology its litrally amazing you made it so easy to understand for everyone . Thanks for the video
Main question is on road and showroom price. Considering we are paying 15-40% extra on showroom price. If the showroom price is going to increase while giving subsidy for on road price. There will still be 1-2lac difference. And by the time we go past 50% ethanol by 2050 or 2060. New source or better ev with more better mileage will be available
Can we have a policy to simply replace the engines of the existing cars (or modify existing engines to be flex fuel compatible)? Then we could have a large addressable market. Otherwise the market is limited to people buying new cars.
Yo thinkschool! Really loved this episode. Could you please make a video on the three stage thorium reactor of india? It was supposed to be the revolutionary thing for us. Is it dead?
The point you made about the water crisis which is clearly a prominent one but I believe the government should use water purification methods to be able to use the same for production of said bio fuels as we are not going to reuse it for consumption, or reuse waste water to steam-line in the process that will not affect consumption. As I also understand like sugar water also has byproducts so does water when it comes to households…
More sugarcane production for ethenol means more scarcity of water. We already suffering from water deficit. Farmers will stop growing grains will make us depend on others for grain.
Mr. Nitin Gadkari should become an irrigation minister in next 5 yr term. We'll witness hundreds of river and canal projects, which will eventually help farmers to produce more ethanol.

@@sarthakshukla5450ev isn't eco friendly Lithium literally destroys the area, by polluting humongous amount of water,air and land and after battery is dead it is also a liability on environment
I have been watching and learning from your videos. This is by far one of the most interesting, informative video that I have seen. I can’t imagine the time and concentration needed to create something useful like this. Great job. 😊
1) Please don't make flex fuel from Agriculture products because it requires lot of fresh water and water most precious resource that we don't understand it is nore precious than Oil. We should focus to extract ethenol from waste.. 2) We should also ban export of wter intensive crops and its derivatives such as rice and sugar.. 3) Biggest importer of Rice is China. But China can produce lot more rice than it need but it import because China knows that Rice required lot of water. Indirectly China is importing fresh Water from India.
If we are able to reduce our dependence on crude oil by increasing the ethanol content in fuel, will the demand for electric vehicles be hindered by the reduced fuel cost?
Who said prices of fuel will be reduced, it will never. There used to be big differences in price of petrol, diesel and CNG and all have reached at almost the same level. If crude price falls then also there is no reduction in prices (though in theory petroleum prices are deregulated and depends on market prices). So only govt will benefit from this as it will save its Dollars, but common people will suffer, as food inflation will increase, and people's with vehicles have low mileage but costly vehicles. And what will be the maintenance cost of those flex fuel vehicles ? I am personally waiting for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, as it will be the cleanest and cheapest fuel available.
Bamboo presents a compelling solution to supply-side challenges. It boasts remarkable water efficiency in comparison to sugarcane, exhibiting an extended lifespan of 80-120 years after initial planting. Certain bamboo species can yield as much as 50-100 tons per acre annually. India's tropical climate provides an ideal environment for bamboo cultivation, capable of thriving in diverse soil types, including high-salinity soils. Furthermore, bamboo surpasses sugarcane in ethanol production while exhibiting rapid growth, outpacing most other plant species on Earth. It also contributes significantly to oxygen production, surpassing other plants by 35%, consequently aiding in carbon dioxide sequestration from the atmosphere. Prominent figures such as Mr. Nitin Gadkari have highlighted bamboo's potential in various conferences. I encourage you to consider creating a dedicated video on this specific topic 😊
Well, Thank you @ThinkSchool for wonderful video. Request:Needed a full video on this please My question is that: So India is trying to reduce risk from fossil fuels such as crude oil And checking for alternatives like Ethanol,Electricity and Hydrogen fuel Each of them have challenges but among these three which is going to be good and more potential,cost effective and so on to India. Because ethanol needs crops which consume more water Many companies are investing huge in electrifying the India and also there is a concept of hydrogen fuel which is invested huge by most top company in India Which of this gonna rule or get better for india.
After seeing the pros and cons of Ethanol as a complementary source of fuel, I think it is going to be a huge task to overcome the risk factors and the challenges in manufacturing and adoption. But one thing I would appreciate is that the present govt. is hustling.
I have a doubt and hopefully some one could clarify. What are the impacts to produce plants which are going to be used for biofuel as they consume unreasonable amounts of geound water which has impacts of making soil a dessert. Are we develoing any new varieties to go around this issue ?
We can use rotten crops as well and bamboo is good alternative. Its not decided whether which crop will be used. Govt is still materializing the policy. Bamboo uses far less water and can be used to produce ethanol.
Hello @Thinkschool, cultivation of Rice & Sugarcane takes 1/3 of the country's total water resources. Where we can see major water crisis in summer across the country. This is going to be not a game changer but a disaster in making 😅
@@ThinkSchool There is also a solution to it. If production of sugarcane is shifted to states where water is easily available like West Bengal, Orissa, Assam etc. Then we won't have to worry about any water crisis.
I never liked the UPA govt... But this time I'm glad to hear that Manmohan ji also tried to do ethnol thing in his time ... And and and... The fact that now it is seen taking shape, also shows us the importance of geopolitics and keeping friendly terms with nations and also putting our own stance confidently....
I have a bad feeling that even if oil marketing companies sell petrol/diesel at 15 Rupees, the government will simply increase the excise duty levied by 85 and the final price will be 100 Rupees only. For example, despite importing crude oil at a discount from Russia, no benefit to the consumer was passed by government

"War is the spectacular and bloody projection of our everyday living. We precipitate war out of our daily lives; and without a transformation in ourselves, there are bound to be national and racial antagonisms, the childish quarreling over ideologies, the multiplication of soldiers, the saluting of flags, and all the many brutalities that go to create organized murder. - J Krishnamurti

Thanks for covering both benefits and challenges of flex fuel. Excellent case study👏👏 But with so many options each having it's own pros and cons it's getting kinda confusing.
VIDEO SUGGESTION-
Compare
1. Traditional petrodiesel vehicles
2. Flex fuel vehicles
3. Electric vehicles
4. Hydrogen vehicles
Based on
1. Economics
2. Environmental impact
3. Government policies
4. Worldwide adoption
One way to manage the demand side of ethanol powered automobiles can be to chart a roadmap for consumers explaining how the increase in price of one vehicle is almost null because the petrol will be cheaper and ultimately the money they would otherwise spend on a fully petrol driven car will be far less than ethanol.
This is an assumption that can be beautified for a layman’s dictionary.
#amazingvideo ❤
Ethanol is a very dangerous chemical and is expensive to store.
Yeah sooo dangerous that youre drinking it lol
Pretty detailed and informative!!
Nice work think school!!🤘
My next question: What is the update on hydrogen fuel?!
India has been betting on it for quite sometime now
The govt is actually working on hydrogen vehicles for commercial purposes like lorries and buses
The production for hydrogen fuel is also under working by reliance industry.

While ethanol-fueled cars have some advantages, they also come with several downsides:
1. Reduced fuel economy: Ethanol contains less energy per gallon compared to gasoline, leading to lower fuel efficiency. This means you'll need to refuel more often, offsetting some of the cost savings.
2. Limited availability: Not all gas stations offer ethanol blends, so finding a convenient refueling station can be challenging in some areas.
3. Corrosion and engine damage: Ethanol can be corrosive to certain engine components and fuel system parts, potentially leading to increased maintenance costs and shorter engine lifespan if the vehicle isn't designed to handle ethanol blends.
4. Lower energy content: Ethanol has a lower energy density than gasoline, which can result in reduced overall vehicle performance, especially in terms of acceleration and power.
5. Water absorption: Ethanol is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs water from the environment. This can lead to phase separation in the fuel tank and cause engine problems, especially in older vehicles.
6. Land use and environmental concerns: The production of ethanol often involves growing crops like corn, which can lead to land-use changes and environmental issues, such as deforestation and increased pesticide use.
7. Limited range: Due to ethanol's lower energy content, vehicles may have a shorter driving range on a full tank compared to gasoline.
8. Price fluctuations: Ethanol prices can be volatile, depending on factors like crop yields and government policies, which can make budgeting for fuel costs more unpredictable.
9. Cold weather performance: Ethanol can be problematic in very cold temperatures, as it can cause fuel system components to freeze or lead to difficulties starting the engine.
Overall, while ethanol can offer some benefits, it also presents challenges and trade-offs that consumers and automakers need to consider when choosing a fuel source.
Great study, but i think to much dependancy on ethanol using such a water intensive crop such as sugarcane can prove to be devastating, instead we should try to focus more on Biogas
Best Politician Nitin Gadkari ❤
Currently 10% of the fuel we put in our vehicles have ethanol already blended in it and yet the price drop wasn't seen :)
Exactly modi government is not giving to consumers when petrol prizes go down in global market
@@parshu.9309 Govt is undertaking huge infra projects.. Where do you think the money is coming for ? I think you would rather prefer that money is sent to people pockets like congress and other parties are doing with no intention of developing infra or anything... Eventually Country will turn into Sri Lanka which is probably what you like
Congress destroyed mindset of people by giving free bies and people are so used to it that they dont want anything else
@@innigaaduexactly that’s the thing. People don’t see the things behind. And also govt is giving 80 crore people free ration as well so govt needs the tax revenue to fund this scheme
What do you expect? In a country where only 3% population file ITR. And the rest 97% just suck out that money, with very less left for infra, space, military, technological research and education.
@@Pgggg what infra ? Only roads are made and whats toll for ?
Excellent, as usual.😊
I saw Krishna informing about Future Fuel⛽
Gadkari ji is a gem❤. He should become next Prime Minister of india.
what about depleting underground water of land from sugarcane & rice
This is one of the best episodes as I am currently studying Food Biotechnology its litrally amazing you made it so easy to understand for everyone . Thanks for the video
I did a futurology group project on exactly this topic. Our predictions have been very accurate so far!
Main question is on road and showroom price. Considering we are paying 15-40% extra on showroom price. If the showroom price is going to increase while giving subsidy for on road price. There will still be 1-2lac difference. And by the time we go past 50% ethanol by 2050 or 2060. New source or better ev with more better mileage will be available
Can we have a policy to simply replace the engines of the existing cars (or modify existing engines to be flex fuel compatible)? Then we could have a large addressable market. Otherwise the market is limited to people buying new cars.
Or just promote the production of 3G biofuels. Petrol and Diesel refined from bio crude oil is usable in any engine
Very good information for agriculture and good future a Indian farmers
India has already achieved 10% ethanol blending as of 2023. In 2014 it was 1.5%
What a great episode on bio - fuel technology and it's future . Very detailed and exhaustive . Thank you for the information you have given .
Yo thinkschool! Really loved this episode. Could you please make a video on the three stage thorium reactor of india? It was supposed to be the revolutionary thing for us. Is it dead?
The point you made about the water crisis which is clearly a prominent one but I believe the government should use water purification methods to be able to use the same for production of said bio fuels as we are not going to reuse it for consumption, or reuse waste water to steam-line in the process that will not affect consumption. As I also understand like sugar water also has byproducts so does water when it comes to households…
More sugarcane production for ethenol means more scarcity of water. We already suffering from water deficit. Farmers will stop growing grains will make us depend on others for grain.
Mr. Nitin Gadkari should become an irrigation minister in next 5 yr term. We'll witness hundreds of river and canal projects, which will eventually help farmers to produce more ethanol.
You are undoutedly making good content and I like your content too... but I just want you to suggest that it would be great if you add Timelines in your videos.... than it could be great help to me and others too.
Good analysis. Our country need many more such educational videos on all relevant topics concerning Indian economy.
CNG came in saying affordable... now only marginal difference... now it will be at a viable price levels... but eventually lobbying will make it leveled up..
Aquire the market with cheap price , then once the market is up with few companies or a monopoly raise the price bit by bit … Every thing for business people not for a common man in a long run
Welcome to capitalism
Best video ever I saw on you tube on flex fuel & Ethenol blending...
Wondering how this would play out along with the growing EV markets.
Ev will win.
They will kill EV if this takes off
Isn’t EV the eco friendly option that we should be rooting for ?
@@sarthakshukla5450ev isn't eco friendly Lithium literally destroys the area, by polluting humongous amount of water,air and land and after battery is dead it is also a liability on environment
@@sarthakshukla5450can't recycle ♻,and not renewable.
I have been watching and learning from your videos. This is by far one of the most interesting, informative video that I have seen. I can’t imagine the time and concentration needed to create something useful like this. Great job. 😊
1) Please don't make flex fuel from Agriculture products because it requires lot of fresh water and water most precious resource that we don't understand it is nore precious than Oil. We should focus to extract ethenol from waste..
2) We should also ban export of wter intensive crops and its derivatives such as rice and sugar..
3) Biggest importer of Rice is China. But China can produce lot more rice than it need but it import because China knows that Rice required lot of water. Indirectly China is importing fresh Water from India.
Do u know about goverment's sponge city projects to store rainwater?
China importing freshwater indirectly------ so true
Informative and articulated real facts and figures of ethonal production and its supply chain management. 👌🇮🇳👍
Hydrogen is a great possibility, an alternative to petrol/diesel, but mostly it is based on electrolysis even though other possibilities exist too.
Brilliant channel ! Kudos to you and your team. 👍
I must say your channel is one of the finest i have ever come across. Crisp and worthy.
If we are able to reduce our dependence on crude oil by increasing the ethanol content in fuel, will the demand for electric vehicles be hindered by the reduced fuel cost?
Who said prices of fuel will be reduced, it will never. There used to be big differences in price of petrol, diesel and CNG and all have reached at almost the same level. If crude price falls then also there is no reduction in prices (though in theory petroleum prices are deregulated and depends on market prices).
So only govt will benefit from this as it will save its Dollars, but common people will suffer, as food inflation will increase, and people's with vehicles have low mileage but costly vehicles.
And what will be the maintenance cost of those flex fuel vehicles ?
I am personally waiting for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, as it will be the cleanest and cheapest fuel available.
Mind blowing video in recent times...udos to you brother.
Bamboo presents a compelling solution to supply-side challenges. It boasts remarkable water efficiency in comparison to sugarcane, exhibiting an extended lifespan of 80-120 years after initial planting. Certain bamboo species can yield as much as 50-100 tons per acre annually. India's tropical climate provides an ideal environment for bamboo cultivation, capable of thriving in diverse soil types, including high-salinity soils. Furthermore, bamboo surpasses sugarcane in ethanol production while exhibiting rapid growth, outpacing most other plant species on Earth. It also contributes significantly to oxygen production, surpassing other plants by 35%, consequently aiding in carbon dioxide sequestration from the atmosphere.
Prominent figures such as Mr. Nitin Gadkari have highlighted bamboo's potential in various conferences. I encourage you to consider creating a dedicated video on this specific topic 😊
Nicely presented. Its a 360 degree approach.
Well, Thank you @ThinkSchool for wonderful video.
Request:Needed a full video on this please
My question is that:
So India is trying to reduce risk from fossil fuels such as crude oil
And checking for alternatives like
Ethanol,Electricity and Hydrogen fuel
Each of them have challenges but among these three which is going to be good and more potential,cost effective and so on to India.
Because ethanol needs crops which consume more water
Many companies are investing huge in electrifying the India and also there is a concept of hydrogen fuel which is invested huge by most top company in India
Which of this gonna rule or get better for india.
After seeing the pros and cons of Ethanol as a complementary source of fuel, I think it is going to be a huge task to overcome the risk factors and the challenges in manufacturing and adoption. But one thing I would appreciate is that the present govt. is hustling.
I have a doubt and hopefully some one could clarify. What are the impacts to produce plants which are going to be used for biofuel as they consume unreasonable amounts of geound water which has impacts of making soil a dessert. Are we develoing any new varieties to go around this issue ?
We can use rotten crops as well and bamboo is good alternative. Its not decided whether which crop will be used. Govt is still materializing the policy. Bamboo uses far less water and can be used to produce ethanol.
What a beautiful presentation blending all factors precisely to show present & future prospects 👍🏻
Hello @Thinkschool, cultivation of Rice & Sugarcane takes 1/3 of the country's total water resources. Where we can see major water crisis in summer across the country. This is going to be not a game changer but a disaster in making 😅
Thats exactly what I said
I think they will do more reacher and eventually found the way to make it by corn 🌽 rotten vegetables etc which take Compartivily too less water 😊
@@ThinkSchool water conservation department should also work hand in hand with these
@@ThinkSchool There is also a solution to it. If production of sugarcane is shifted to states where water is easily available like West Bengal, Orissa, Assam etc. Then we won't have to worry about any water crisis.
@@rupeshsah7000 not all crops grow in all soils

The fact that now it is seen taking shape, also shows us the importance of geopolitics and keeping friendly terms with nations and also putting our own stance confidently....
He explains soooo well amazing👍🏻
I have a bad feeling that even if oil marketing companies sell petrol/diesel at 15 Rupees, the government will simply increase the excise duty levied by 85 and the final price will be 100 Rupees only. For example, despite importing crude oil at a discount from Russia, no benefit to the consumer was passed by government
Very informative and well articulated. Keep up the awesome work.
