LABURPENA: Teknologiak aurrera egin ahala ingurumenean sortzen diren arriskuen kudeaketa juridikoa erronka zaila izaten da legegilearentzat. Ikusi besterik ez dago zer ahultasun dituen karbono dioxidoaren biltegiratze geologikoari buruzko abenduaren 29ko 40/2010 Legeak, arlo horretako arautegi nagusia denak. Lan honetan, ahultasun horietako batzuk lantzen dira: adibidez, gaiari buruzko berariazko lege bat egin beharra, eskumenen arazoa, instalazio igorle handiek CO2 biltegiratzeko obligaziorik ez izatea, eta Administrazio publikoei erantzukizuna transferitzearen erregulazioa. RESUMEN: Los retos juridicos de la gestion de los riesgos ambientales derivados del avance tecnologico no siempre encuentran una adecuada respuesta por el legislador. Una buena muestra de ello son las inconsistencias que presenta la regulacion del almacenamiento geologico del dioxido de carbono en nuestro pais llevada a cabo, fundamentalmente, por la Ley 40/2010, de 29 de diciembre, de almacenamiento geologico de dioxido de carbono. En este trabajo se analizan alguna de ellas como la necesidad de elaborar una ley especifica sobre la materia, la controvertida cuestion competencial, la ausencia de imposicion obligatoria del almacenamiento de CO2 a las grandes instalaciones emisoras y la regulacion de la transferencia de responsabilidad a las Administraciones publicas. ABSTRACT: The legal challenges of the enviromental risks management that derive from the technological progress do not always find a suitable answer in the legislator. A good example of it are the inconsistencies in the regulation of the geological storage of carbon dioxide in our country, specialy, by Act 40/2010 of December 29th of geological storage of carbon dioxide. In this work some of those are analyzed as for example the need to draft a specific act on the subject, the controversial issue of competences, the lack of a compulsory imposition to store CO2 to the large emitting facilities and the regulation of the transfer of liabilities to the public administrations.

Ethanol produced from various biobased sources (bioethanol) has been gaining high attention lately due to its potential to cut down net emissions of carbon dioxide while reducing burgeoning world dependence on fossil fuels. Global ethanol production has increased more than six-fold from 18 billion liters at the turn of the century to 110 billion liters in 2019 (1,2). Sugar cane and corn have been used as the major feedstocks for ethanol production. Lignocellulosic biomass has recently been considered as another potential feedstock. This paper reviews recent developments and current status of commercial production of ethanol across the world. The review includes the ethanol production processes used for each type of feedstock, both currently practiced at commercial scale and newly developed technologies, and production trends in various regions and countries in the world.
