Publisher: Springer
Number Of Pages: 170

ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1848821379
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781848821378
Binding: Hardcover
Biofuels for Road Transport: A Seed to Wheel Perspective provides a
review of the history, the current status and perspectives for biofuels
used in road transport, across the full 鈥榮eed-to-wheel鈥?life cycle of
these fuels. Successive chapters cover the history of biofuels; the
first- and second-generation liquid fuels and biofuels for powering
electric vehicles; fossil fuel replacement, land requirement,
greenhouse gas balances and environmental burdens of ethanol, esters
derived from fatty acids (鈥榖iodiesel鈥?, Fischer-Tropsch diesel and HTU
diesel; competing technologies (fossil fuels, increases in
energy-efficiency and photovoltaic power) and how they compare to
biofuels; and the perspectives for biofuels. Cost, availability,
technological development, competition with biomass for food and for
soil organic carbon and environmental perspectives are also discussed.
Biofuels for Road Transport: A Seed to Wheel Perspective is a
valuable reference for professional engineers, researchers and
postgraduate students involved in biofuels, renewable energy (including
bioenergy) and the automotive industry.
