Biofuels for transport

Biofuels are transport fuels that are produced from renewable biomass with raw material from the forest, agricultural products or biogenic waste. There are a wide variety of conversion techniques that provide different types of fuels that can replace the current use of petrol and diesel. Most of these fuels are liquid, such as ethanol and biodiesel but they can also be gaseous, biogas. Biofuels are largely compatible with today's vehicles and can be blended with current fossil fuels. Aviation is the second largest consumer of energy in the transport industry. The major hurdle to clear in aviation is the need for highly pure, chemically stable fuel. Having jet fuel freeze at 30,000 feet is not a good thing, so biofuels intended for aviation are more difficult to produce than for ground transport.
