Different types of biofuels

Introduction

“Biofuel is an inexhaustible, biodegradable fuel manufactured from Biomass.”

Biofuel is considered pure and the easiest available fuels on planet earth.

Biofuels are obtained from biomass like wood and straw, which are released by direct combustion of dry matter and convert into a gaseous and liquid fuel. Other sources include organic matter like sludge, sewage and vegetable oils matter, which can be converted into biofuels by a wet process like digestion and fermentation.

Types Of Biofuels

Biofuel is generally available in all regions of the world, which mainly include fuels like:

• Biodiesel
• Bioethanol
• Bio methanol

The two most common types of biofuels in use today are bioethanol and biodiesel.

Both of which represent the first generation of biofuel technology.

Production Of Biofuel From The Plant Products

Wood, straw and domestic refuse are used as a source of heat and energy. Biofuels can also be produced from animal fats, plant wastes and o
