A Chinese-Based Research on Liquid Biofuels for Transportation and The Implications of Transportation for Sustainable Energy
Abstract
Developing "The main purpose of biofuels projects is to develop and manufacture sustainable biofuels. This notion is the standard by which we evaluate problems in society, the economy, and the environment. Sustainability in energy provision involves meeting the needs of the present generation without jeopardising the ability of subsequent generations to do the same. Traditional wisdom holds that biofuels and other forms of renewable energy are the way of the future "sustainable means of producing energy.
One possible "sustainability in the context of the environment is the means through which greenhouse gas emissions might be reduced. If the economy can be sustained, then so can the production of biofuels for transportation. Economic and social effects of biofuel use are "addressed in this article (Fontes, 2010).
There are essentially four different "generations" of biofuel, each distinguished by the type of raw material used and production method applied.
Grow and "The initial generation of biodiesel was produced mostly from animal fats. Traditional biofuels are made from sugar, starch, vegetable oils, and "oils, or tallow and lard from animals.
For the second "production, the ingredients come from places like cellulose conversion, landfills, and agricultural and municipal trash. Waste products, cereal grains, maize stalks, tree bark, and specialised energy or biomass crops are all viable options for producing biomass. Second-generation biomass-to-liquid technologies include those that produce cellulosic biofuels from non-food crops "biofuels.
A third "During the cultivation process, a substance undergoes a transformation that is used to develop a new generation. Further research and development is required, for example, before perennial grasses, fast-growing trees, and algae may be commercialised. Energy crops get their name since their sole function is to produce energy "to power vehicles.
Those who study it ([Kupczyk, Rudnicki, & Borowski, 2011] The fourth generation of carbon "processing" involves biological systems.
