ABSTRACT
Using biofuels, which are fuels made from organic materials that are renewable, has the potential to lessen harmful effects of fossil fuel production and use, such as conventional and greenhouse gas emissions. The production of biofuel from a variety of feedstocks and processes, in addition to well-established technologies for producing bioethanol and biodiesel, has shown high potential to provide efficient and affordable alternatives to the rapidly depleting fossil fuel supply. Examples include electrochemical carbon fixation and algal photosynthesis. By pyrolyzing appropriate biomass, a wide variety of biofuels, including charcoal, bio-oil, renewable diesel, methane, and hydrogen, can be produced.
Keywords: Biogas, Green hydrogen, Biodiesel, Bioethanol.
