In this paper, we review the current effort toward the design of production processes from
different sources of biomass including first, second, and third generation of biofuels such as …

This report describes a proposed thermochemical process for converting biomass into liquid
transportation fuels via fast pyrolysis followed by hydroprocessing of the condensed …

In this study, conversion of Napier grass bagasse into biofuel was carried out through steady
state process modelling and simulation using Aspen Plus software. An integrated …

Duckweed biomass is gasified in a thermochemical-based superstructure to produce
gasoline, diesel, and kerosene using a synthesis gas intermediate. The superstructure …

For a successful large scale implementation of biomass-to-liquid fuel for transportation, it is
imperative that production of liquid fuel from biomass be maximized. For this purpose …

Large-scale deployment of both biochemical and thermochemical routes for advanced
biofuels production is seen as a key climate change mitigation option. This study addresses …

Advanced biofuel is a promising replacement to fossil fuels for the purpose of protecting the
environment and securing national energy supply, but the high cost of producing advanced …
