Maybe that's why we never see anything higher than 91 Octane ratings.
We have 93 octane here with up to 10% Ehtanol.

It takes different amounts of energy to extract Ethanol from different products...Each type of garbage would probably need it's own process to obtain Ethanol....making it to costly. I have read about someone who has spent decades developing a "plasma-gasification" machine, where you can dump anything from bricks to batteries to live ammunition and it will create energy.
"Longo has been talking with the National Science Foundation about installing a system at McMurdo Station in Antarctica. The Vietnamese government is considering buying one to get rid of stockpiles of Agent Orange that the U.S. military left behind after the war. Investors from China, Poland, Japan, Romania, Italy, Russia, Brazil, Venezuela, the U.K., Mexico and Canada have all entered contract negotiations with Startech after making the pilgrimage to Bristol to see Longo’s dog-and-pony show."

Two "plants" that produce more Ethanol for the same energy put into corn are algae and saw grass.
