Our World is awash in ethanol. In 2003, some 150 billion liters of beer, 27 billion liters of wine, and 2 billion liters of distilled spirits (mainly vodka) were produced worldwide. This amounts to about 8 billion liters of pure alcohol, representing about 20 percent of world’s total ethanol production of 20 billion liters. Now that alternative energy sources are priority, fuel ethanol made mainly from sugar cane and corn, accounts for the lion’s share (70 percent in 2003) and more today). The industrial sector of chemicals and pharmaceuticals produces the remaining 10 percent. For the foreseeable future, the fuel sector will probably continue to expand while the production of alcoholic beverages will show only modest gains to keep pace with the world’s population. The world’s total annual production of pure alcohol for beverages now exceeds 15 billion liters and is projected to reach 20 billion liters by 2012. (book written in 2009)
