  • 摘要:The need for secure energy resources has become a dominant theme for most developing and developed nations. In this growing challenge, humankind consumes 87,135,100 barrels of petroleum/ day that needs to be continuously replaced to ensure our standard of living [1]. Hence, the development of biofuels provides one of the few sustainable solutions to contribute to this challenge. Furthermore, it is also well acknowledged that for the foreseeable future the development of sustainable biofuels needs to be pursued to diminish the net growth of atmospheric carbon. Another benefit for biofuels that is often over- looked is that can provide a viable technical solution for biological based waste materials that maybe difficult to alternatively dispose of in an environmentally compatible, cost-effective manner. For example, transportation ethanol is being recovered from spent brewer's yeasts, waste beer/wine, biodiesel from waste cooking oils and animal rendered fats, and efforts are growing to utilize waste food process streams from citrus and potato processing plants for bioethanol to highlight just a few promising examples.
