Advanced Fuels
Topic outline
-
You´ll get all important information to start the learning arrangement advanced fuels here!
-
Feedstocks for biofuel production encompass crops, agricultural residues, and waste materials utilized to produce renewable biofuels. Crop-based feedstocks like corn and soybeans, along with agricultural residues such as corn stover, are commonly used. Waste materials like used cooking oil and forestry residues also serve as valuable feedstocks. In this section you learn about different types of Feedstocks.

ViewFuels from algae or organic waste can be produced with similar processing routes. Therefore they will be discussed together in this book.
-
Electrofuels are a type of synthetic fuel produced by using renewable electricity to power the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) and water into liquid or gaseous fuels. This process, known as electrochemical or power-to-fuel conversion, has the potential to offer carbon-neutral alternatives to traditional fossil fuels and help decarbonize the transportation sector. In this section you learn about different types of electrofuels.
