Benzinevervanger (E85)

Energy content/calorific value = 30.2 MJ/kg or 22.61 MJ/litre. Density = 0.75 kg/litre Blend based on average petrol substitutes (85% volume) and fossil (15% volume). The CO2 emissions during use are set equal to zero, due to the short-cycle nature of the carbon in these fuels. CO2 is indeed released, but it does not contribute to the enhancement of the greenhouse effect. Emissions from Indirect Land Use Change Effects (ILUC) due to the production of biofuel are not included, because the amount of fuel with an ILUC risk that may be sold is limited. This means that additional demand for biofuel will not lead to greater use of fuels with an ILUC risk, once the maximum permitted amount has been reached. The amount of biofuels can then only increase further through an increase in so-called advanced biofuels, which carry no ILUC risk.
