BIOFUEL
 Any hydrocarbon fuel that is produced from organic
matter (living or once living material) in a short period
of time (days, weeks, or even months) is considered a
Biofuel.
BIOFUEL VS FOSSIL FUEL
 Fossil fuels are not renewable, which means they will
run out at some point.
 Biofuels can be looked upon as a way of energy
security which stands as an alternative of fossil fuels
that are limited in availability.
CAN YOU IMAGINE LIFE WITHOUT FUEL?
NO!

ASSOCIATION
WHY USE BIOFUELS? The energy content of biodiesel is about 90% that of
petroleum diesel.
 The energy content of ethanol is about 50% that of
gasoline.
 The energy content of butanol is about 80% that of
gasoline.
 Biofuels burn cleaner than fossil fuels, resulting in fewer
emissions of greenhouse gases, particulate emissions, and
substances that cause acid rain such as sulfur.
 Biodiesel is sulfur free.
 Biodiesel has fewer polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons,
which have been linked to cancer.
 Additionally, biofuels are biodegradable, so if they do spill,
less harm is done compared to when fossil fuels spill.
