1. BIOMASS, ALTERNATIVE
FUELS and BIOENERGY
 PAULA PERIS

2. ALTERNATIVE FUELS
 The alternative fuels are renewable.
 Examples: biogas, methanol, ethanol.

3. BIOMASS
The biomass does
not affect the
atmosphere because
it doesn’t cause
greenhouse effect.

4. BIOENERGY
 Bioenergy is
renewable energy
made available from
materials derived
from biological
sources.

5. ETHANOL & METHANOL
 Methanol and
ethanol are
another alcohol-
based fuel, which
are derived from
natural gas.
 The base oil is put
through a process
called
“esterificiation”.

6. BIODIESEL
Other benefits include:
 Reduce carbon monoxide, particulate
matter and hydrocarbon emissions.
 Reduces engine wear and noise.
 The safest fuel to handle and store .
 It is a renewable resource.
