Biofuel Options Expand as Science Taps New Sources
Scientists are making progress in developing biofuels with a range of methods and an assortment of feedstocks, according to the US Department of Energy.
Microbes Produce Fuels Directly from Biomass
A collaboration led by researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI) has developed a microbe that can produce an advanced biofuel directly from biomass.
Microbubbles Win Awards
A paper about the design of an air-lift loop bioreactor, which exploits a recent patent by two of the co-authors (Zimmerman and Tesar, WO2008053174) for the energy-efficient generation of microbubbles and revolutionising the potential production of biofuels,...
Biofuels 2010: Spotting the Next Wave
The Prometheus Institute has turned from solar energy to biofuels in a new study by Joshua Kagan and Travis Bradford that gives an economic analysis of all current and proposed generations of biofuels. The report charts a clear path forward for future...
How Algae Makes Surplus Light Energy Harmless
Light is of vital importance. However, excessive sunbathing causes sunburn - and not only in people and animals. Intensive exposure to sunlight can be harmful for plants, too, according to Dr. Christina Heimken at the Westfaelische Wilhelms-Universität...
Feedstock and Biodiesel Characteristics Report
A project to produce biodiesel from a wide variety of feedstocks and to provide the characteristics of both the feedstock and biodiesel has shown a wide variety of fuel properties for different feedstocks, writes TheBioenergySite senior editor, Chris...
Biofuels, Biosecurity and Seafood Safety
Research being carried out at the Cawthron Institute in New Zealand is improving knowledge of how algae impact food safety issues in shellfish, and how they can be put to good use for biofuel production, Danette Olsen explains in an article published...
Algae - a new source for Biodiesel for 2020
The key drivers for the global biodiesel market are energy independence, economic security, environmental security, national security, tax incentives and government mandates writes the senior editor for TheBioenergySite, Chris Harris.
Aquatic Biofuels as an Alternative
Aquatic resources to produce clean energy could be part of the answer to meeting the world's energy needs and demands, writes TheBioenergySite Senior Editor Chris Harris.
A Quick Guide to Biofuels
By Shell International Limited - The article provides a quick guide to biofuels.
Growing Sustainable biofuels: The Place of Biofuels - Producing Sustainable Biofuels #2
By Patrick Mazza, Climate Solutions Research Director - Once the transportation system ran entirely on biofuels. When motive power was supplied by horses and other animals, wide swathes of countryside were devoted to growing the fuel for these biological...
Growing Sustainable Biofuels: The Cellulosic Fuels Revolution - Producing Sustainable Biofuels #1
By Patrick Mazza, Climate Solutions Research Director - For biofuels these are breakthrough times. Driven by volatile energy markets and new public policy initiatives, biofuels production is booming and production capacity is rapidly growing.
