Biofuels as a clever elucidation to conserve non-renewable resources
Author(s): Dr. Reetu Singh
Abstract: Biofuels can be derived directly from plants or indirectly from agricultural, commercial, domestic and industrial wastes. The use of waste biomass to generate energy can decrease waste management problems, pollution, greenhouse gases emission and the use of fossil fuels. There is a huge potential for bioenergy obtained from waste to decrease the speed of global warming. Brief summaries of various types of biofuels, generations of biofuels and the basic concepts involved in the thermochemical and biological conversions of biomass fuels are presented in this paper. Various processes such as combustion, pyrolysis, gasification, liquefaction, anaerobic digestion, aerobic composting and fermentation have been discussed.
