What is bioethanol made from?
Bioethanol is a type of ethanol made from biomass. Biomass is usually derived from sugar beet but can even be made from agricultural waste.
Biomass is made when a natural fermentation period begins, in which the sugars in biomass are turned into alcohol by yeast, the same as any drinkable alcohol such as wine or beer, but at a much higher ethanol percentage. The resulting alcohol is then distilled and purified so it can be used specifically as fuel.
Where can you buy bioethanol fuel for fireplaces?
It can be purchased from a range of local and online retailers. Many home improvement shops, garden centres, and fireplace suppliers stock bottles of bioethanol suitable for domestic use too.
It’s important to use only bioethanol, as no other fuels should be used in your burner. It should be clearly labelled for use in bioethanol fireplaces, as this ensures it burns cleanly and safely indoors.
