The June 2020 Issue of Biofuel Research Journal is out!

On the Cover Life cycle analyses generally show that the main sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) savings for bioenergy derived from plants are fossil fuel displacement and soil and root carbon storage. Although they are of a similar magnitude, they are not equally important (DOI: 10.18331/BRJ2020.7.2.2). In the June 2020 Issue of Biofuel Research Journal, Yang and Tilman show that soil and root carbon storage is more important. It directly removes CO2 from the atmosphere, whereas the ...

The March 2020 Issue of Biofuel Research Journal is out!

On the Cover The major by-product of biodiesel production process is glycerol which can be technically/environmentally problematic. Catalytic valorization of glycerol into fuel additives could be a promising strategy. However, the effects of catalyst type and its synthesis method on glycerol conversion are instrumental. In the March 2020 Issue of Biofuel Research Journal, Indian researchers applied a highly active and stable CeO2-ZrO2 metal oxide catalyst for esterification of glycerol ...

The June Issue of Biofuel Research Journal is out!

  On the cover Despite the high biosorption capacity of microalgae, freely suspended microalgae is not attractive because of a number of disadvantages, i.e., small particle size, low chemical resistance, low mechanical strength, and difficulty in separation of biomass from the treated effluent. However, these shortcomings can be addressed by using immobilized microalgae in a biosorption packed bed. In this issue of Biofuel Research Journal, Dr. Kamoru A. Salam comprehensively reviews ...

The March Issue of Biofuel Research Journal is out!

    On the cover  One of the main concerns for producing biofuels from lignin polymer is its recalcitrant nature against biological/chemical depolymerization. The lignin-to-liquid (LtL) process could be a viable route to overcome this challenge. During this process, lignin polymer is depolymerized in a high-temperature solvolytic aqueous environment in the presence of a hydrogen-donor catalyst such as formic acid. In this issue of Biofuel Research Journal, a group of Norwegian ...

The December Issue of Biofuel Research Journal is out!

  On the cover Catalytic pyrolysis of biomass could be a cost-competitive route for biofuels production. To achieve that, development of dedicated catalysts for selective deoxygenation and cracking of bio-oil would be essential. Such breakthrough catalysts could pave the way for scaling up the existing pyrolysis technologies to achieve commercial production of biofuels through pyrolysis. In this issue of Biofuel Research Journal, Dr. Ali Imran (University of Twente & King Abdullah ...
