2. ETHANOL FUEL OF THE FUTURE (Henry Ford - 1906) Ethanol first became popular as a fuel with the model T. (above) Henry Ford mixed ethanol with gasoline to run this machine. In 1850, 90 million gallons were produced in The United States.

3. The Bazilian Ethanol Programme Pro Alcohol Adopted in 1975 due to the international petrol crisis: 1 – Adding ethanol to gasoline 2 – Incentive for development of vehicles 100% on ethanol Why Ethanol? Why Ethanol? - Brazil has been one of the main producers of sugar cane since century XVI. - Since 1930 (especially during the 2 nd World War),ethanol mixed with gasoline has been used as automotive fuel in Brazil with good results.
