1. Sugarcane as a Bioenergy Source -- 2. Biofuels Production from Sugarcane -- Various Routes of Harvesting Energy from the Crop -- 3. Energy Cane: A Sound Alternative of a Bioenergy Crop for Tropics and Subtropics -- 4. Genetically Modified Sugarcane for Biofuels Production: Status and Perspectives of Conventional Transgenic Approaches, RNA Interference and Genome Editing for Improving Sugarcane for Biofuels -- 5. Biofuels Production from Sugarcane in Brazil -- 6. Sugarcane Production and It's Utilization as a Biofuel in India: Status, Perspectives, and Current Policy -- 7. Sugarcane biofuels production in China -- 8. Biofuels Production from Sugarcane in Thailand -- 9. Sugarcane Biofuels and Bioenergy Production in Pakistan: Current Scenario, Potential, and Future Avenues -- 10. Ethanol Production from the Mexican Sugar Industry: Perspectives and Challenges -- 11. Sugarcane Biofuels Production in Colombia -- 12. Environmental, Economic and Social Impacts of Biofuels Production from Sugarcane in Australia -- 13. Sugarcane Biofuels Production in Indonesia -- 14. Sugarcane Biofuel Production in the USA -- 15. Sugarcane Biofuels Production in South Africa, Guatemala, Philippines, Argentina, Vietnam, Cuba, and Sri Lanka -- 16. Source-Sink Relationship of Sugarcane Energy Production at the Sugar Mills -- 17. Challenges, Constraints, and Limitations of Cane Biofuels -- 18. Sustainability and Environmental Impacts of Sugarcane Biofuels -- 19. Future Perspectives of Sugarcane Biofuels -- Index.

Sugarcane exhibits all the major characteristics of a promising bioenergy crop including high biomass yield, C4 photosynthetic system, perennial nature, and ratooning ability. Being the largest agricultural commodity of the world with respect to total production, sugarcane biomass is abundantly available. Brazil has already become a sugarcane biofuels centered economy while Thailand, Colombia, and South Africa are also significantly exploiting this energy source. Other major cane producers include India, China, Pakistan, Mexico, Australia, Indonesia, and the United States. It has been projected that sugarcane biofuels will be playing extremely important role in world's energy matrix in recent future. This book analyzes the significance, applications, achievements, and future avenues of biofuels and bioenergy production from sugarcane, in top cane growing countries around the globe. Moreover, we also evaluate the barriers and areas of improvement for targeting efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective biofuels from sugarcane to meet the world's energy needs and combat the climate change.
