Enzymes in Biofuels Production [PDF]
Enzyme Research, 2011 With the inevitable depletion of the nonrenewable resources of fossil fuels and due to their favorable environmental features, biofuels promise to be the preferred fuels of tomorrow. They can displace petroleum fuels and, in many countries, reduce the dependence on imported fuel. Biofuels, derived from biomass conversion, such as biodiesel, bioethanol,

Science, 2007 This story begins with good news, followed by a problem. Many governments around the world, and even some states within the United States, are finding ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. A major step is the almost completed buyout of the giant Texas electric utility TXU by an improbable concatenation of big investors, environmental organizations ...
