- Bioethanol fuel is completely composed of biological products.
- The combustion of bio ethanol results in a clean emission: Heat, Steam and Carbon Dioxide. Hence statement 4 is correct.
- Carbon dioxide is absorbed by plants. It is then processed via photosynthesis to help the plant grow.
- This infinite cycle of creation and combustion of energy makes bio ethanol a carbon neutral fuel source.
