Biofuels Process Engineering. Cranfield University

The UK, along with many other countries, has entered into legally binding targets for renewable energy usage by 2020 with biofuels and biomass contributing on a growing global scale. However, early biofuel technologies exerted pressure on land, food and water supplies which prohibited the sustainability of large scale deployment. The future of biofuels will be in the delivery of biofuels from waste and sustainable feedstocks that will not compete with food production.
