Biofuels [PDF]

Nature, 2011
Biofuel is a generic name for liquid or gaseous fuels that are not derived from petroleum based fossils fuels or contain a proportion of non-fossil fuel. Biofuels include products such as ethanol, methanol, and biodiesel. Biofuels are produced from sources such as: corn, soybeans, flaxseed, rapeseed, sugarcane, palm oil, sugar beet raw sewage, food ...

Study of the Application of Alkaline Extrusion to the Pretreatment of Eucalyptus Biomass as First Step in a Bioethanol Production Process

Energies, 2018
Eucalyptus biomass was studied as a feedstock for sugars release using an alkaline extrusion plus a neutralization-based pretreatment. This approach would be a first step in a bioconversion process aimed at obtaining fuel bioethanol from eucalyptus ...
