A Review paper on Recent Progress of Biofuel in Transportation Sector

Abstract

The declining supply of gasoline generated from petroleum and sustainability issues have prompted an examination of biofuel as a potential substitute energy resource. Biofuels can be a suitable substitute for fossil fuels and have a larger role in providing energy for the transportation sector, power plants, and heat generating sectors because they are environmentally friendly and derived from renewable sources. These days, investigation into biofuels is conducted all over the world due to its two primary characteristics: sustainability and renewability. Since the transportation sector is primarily responsible for the rise in greenhouse gas emissions, significant decarbonization of the transportation sector through the use of renewable fuels is required to facilitate the transition to more efficient modes of transportation. The purpose of the study is to analyze the many sources of biofuels, explain their benefits and sustainability, and examine the manufacturing processes. The evolution, history, categorization, essential elements, and guiding concepts of biofuel technology are all examined in this review paper.
