"while alcohol distillation can be consumed aswell as used as a disinfectant." - Where do you plan on getting this alcohol? Plants?
Which plants?
Brazil is trying that now, and they are clearing out the rain-forests to keep up. Alcohol is NOT the answer. OIL can be turned into gas for pennies a gallon, the rest is all profit.
Gas is STILL too cheap for ANY other form of energy to be viable.
