Cellulosic biofuel technology will generate low-cost green fuel

Cellulosic biofuels offer similar, if not lower, costs and very large reductions in greenhouse gas emissions compared to petroleum-derived fuels. That’s one of the key take-home messages from a series of expert papers on ‘The Role of Biomass in America’s Energy Future (RBAEF)’ in a special issue of Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining.


The UK-based journal believes that the collection, which includes a comparative analysis of more than a dozen mature technology biomass refining scenarios, will make a major contribution to the ongoing debate on the future potential of biofuels.
