الوصف: The rapid increase in crude oil prices, the problem of fossil fuel depletion, global warming, climate change, Kyoto Protocol targets for reducing greenhouse gases, stimulate energy market towards strategic change. Biofuels will enlarge their share versus fossil fuel one. The impact of energy crops on the development of the agricultural economies encourages the interest towards the biofuels (bioethanol and biodiesel). Italy for example is mostly agricultural country with numerous productive varieties, even if it is necessary to promote a real economic-energy chain. As a consequence the development of this chain could be an opportunity to shift the traditional business of agricultural sector. This paper regards the analysis of the production of bio-ethanol from maize in Italy. Authors will analyse material and energy flows of the entire life cycle, from the cultivation of the maize to the production of bioethanol. The methodology of Material Flow Analysis (MFA) will allow us to obtain a description of the resource flows, waste generated and an assessment of the environmental impacts. This study will illustrate the contribution and potential of maize as energy crop.
