Abstract This study investigated the energy outputs from methane and ethanol production from sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench). Different methods of sorghum biomass management were compared. The effect of bio-based waste products – sewage sludge and digestate replacing urea – on the energy output of biofuels produced from two different hybrids of sweet sorghum was evaluated. Conversion of fresh sorghum biomass into methane generated 76.6–179.5 GJ ha−1, while the gross energy output… Expand
