Assessment of Current Practices and Use of Biofuels

Description

Energy is a key enabler of the economy, and dramatic advancements in energy technology, from animal and wood to coal, whale oil, petroleum, and nuclear, have profoundly influenced society's evolution throughout history. The next wave of changes, as the global economic engine incorporates renewable energy technologies like solar technologies or biofuels, may pose a more significant challenge because it is predictable that these technologies will be, at least temporarily, less efficient than the conventional energies of today based on fossil and nuclear fuels. Designing successful industrial plans for the future requires understanding these upcoming issues, which is a crucial task to complete. The fundamentals of biofuel and The Global Demand for Biofuels: Technologies, Markets and Policies, respectively, are covered in Chapters 1 and 2. If biofuel is one of the anticipated answers, then we need to be aware of the cause and effect of the situation. This chapter reviewed the historical aspects and a positive vision for a secure energy source on our beautiful planet. On renewable energy resources, Chapter 3 is based. Biomass and biofuels are illustrated in Chapter 4. Hydrogen, methane, methanol, and bioethanol are all discussed in chapters 5, 6, and 8. Using ethanol and methyl as fuel is discussed in Chapter 9. Systems for storing and transmitting energy are the focus of Chapter 10. Chapter 11 describes the institutional and economic aspects of renewable energy. In order to promote fruitful learning interactions, the book's association has been carefully crafted. The book is structured to meet the needs of students, researchers, managerial organizations, and general readers. Our readers' understanding of the following will hopefully be aided by this book: which biofuels are available to us, The need for biofuels and how to use them. What justifies preserving these biofuels?
