On the cover
The biofuel industry is rapidly growing with a promising role in producing renewable energy and tackling climate change. Nanotechnology has tremendous potential to achieve cost-effective and process-efficient biofuel industry. In the Editorial of this issue of Biofuel Research Journal, Dr. Abdul-Sattar Nizami (Associate Editor of Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews) and Dr. Mohammad Rehan (pp. 798-799; DOI:10.18331/BRJ2018.5.2.2) take us through the details of various nano-materials developed with unique properties for enhanced biofuel production/utilization. They emphasize that the way forward is to develop nanotechnology-based biofuel systems at industrial scale. Cover art by BiofuelResJ.
