• Biofuel is the fuel which is produced from organic
products and wastes.
• The common commercially used biofuels are
bioethanol, biodiesel and biomethane.
Bioethanol is made from sugar, algae, wheat and
sugar beet
Biodiesel is made from vegetable oil, algal lipids,
animal fats
Biomethane can be produced from waste organic
material, sewage, agriculture waste and domestic
wastes.
History
 In 1890s Rudolf Diesel was a first person who
made biodiesel from vegetable oil.
 In 1970s and 1980s environmental protection
agency EPA situated in America suggested that
fuel should be free from sulphur dioxide,
carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides.
 In 1998 EPA allowed the production of biofuel
on commercial level which was the alternative
source of the petrol.
 In 2011, European countries were the largest
that made biodiesel almost about 53%. The
international Energy Agency set a goal to
reduce the usage of petroleum and coal and will
be switched on to biofuels till 2050.

Classification of Biofuels
 Also called conventional biofuels. It includes sugar,
starch, or
vegetable oil
 known as advanced biofuels and can be manufactured from
different types of biomass. The biomass contains material like
wood, straw and waste plastic
 Extract from algae mostly marine algae
Advantages of Biofuels over Fossil Fuels
• Lower emissions Green gas
• Renewable
• Biodegradable
• Safer
Bioethanol
Biodiesel
Biogas
Biobutanol
Bioethanol
 Bioethanol is produced by the fermentation of
carbohydrate rich source which includes sugar cane,
sugar beet, corn etc
 It is colorless and clear liquid
 One of the widely used alternative automotive fuel in
the world
Bioethanol
Fermentation (conversion of sugar
into alcohol, production of ethanol)
Distillation (separation of ethanol)
Dehydration
(azeotropic mixture)
Biodiesel
• Biodiesel, an alternative diesel fuel, is made from re-
new able biological sources such as vegetable oils
and animal fats.
• Similar to petroleum diesel fuel in structure (straight
chain) and number of carbon atoms (10 to 21)
• The Biodiesel can be prepared by Transesterification.

Transesterification
Application of Biodiesel
• Railway usage
• As a heating oil
• Biodiesel in small engine
• Vehicles
Advantages-Disadvantages of Biodiesel
Advantages Disadvantages
Can be used pure biodiesel B100. Biodiesel is significantly more
expensive compared to standard
diesel
Biodiesel has no sulfur content, and so
it doesn't contribute to acid rain
formation
Can release nitrogen oxide which
lead to the formation of smog
Biodiesel has good lubricating
properties better than standard diesel
Food Shortage can be occurred
Comparison between Bioethanol & Biodiesel

Energy provides 93% more net produces only 25% more
energy per gallon net energy.

Biogas
• Biogas is a fuel used as domestic purpose
• Obtained from cow manure, fruit and
vegetable waste
• Biogas is produced by the breakdown of organic waste
by bacteria without oxygen anaerobic digestion
Biogas
• A mixture of CH4 , CO2 and other gases
Gas %
Methane 50–75
Carbon dioxide 25–50
Nitrogen 0–10
Hydrogen 0–1
Hydrogen sulfide 0–3
Oxygen 0–2
Biogas Production
CH3COO-+ H+
CO2 + 4 H2
CH4 + CO2
CH4 + 2H2O
Application of Biogas
• Cooking
• Lighting
• Fuel for engine
Advantages of Biofuels
• Renewable
• Reduce Greenhouse Gases
• Economic Security
• Easy to Source
• Lower level of Pollution
Disadvantages of Biofuel
• High Cost of Production
• Industrial Pollution
• Future Rise in Price
• Shortage of Food
• Use of Fertilizer
• Reduce wastes
• Cleaner air
• New agricultural markets
• Improve balance of payments
• global warming reduction
