The document outlines a nine-step cycle of manufacturing ethanol, beginning with energy absorption by vegetation and ending with ethanol being used as fuel in vehicles. The initial steps involve harvesting plants and extracting cellulose, while the latter steps convert cellulose into sugars and then into ethanol through a chemical process with microbes. This cycle highlights the relationship between vehicle emissions and plant absorption, emphasizing the renewable nature of the process.

The illustration demonstrates the cycle of manufacturing ethanol

Overall, there are nine steps in the sequence, starting with energy being absorbed by
vegetation, followed by the conversion of energy to cellulose, and ending with produced
ethanol being used by various types of vehicles.

The first four steps involve the transformation of the raw substance. Initially, plants and trees
absorb energy which includes sunlight and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. After this,
grown vegetation is harvested by agricultural machinery and conveyed into a chipping machine.
Subsequently, cellulose is extracted, ready for the next stage.

The remaining steps produce a biofuel called ethanol. The collected amount of cellulose
undergoes a chemical process to create sugars. In the following step, the sugars are combined
with microbes, resulting in ethanol which is utilized to power vehicles including cars, lorries and
aircrafts. These vehicles in turn release carbon dioxide into the air as the ethanol combusts in
their powertrains, which is absorbed by plants and trees, renewing the cycle.
