Abstract
Biofuels are quickly emerging as a way to “modernize” the use of biomass, enhance access to renewable liquid fuels and help cope with energy expenses, global warming, and security issues linked with fossil fuels. The review offers details on biofuel conversion technologies and understands the limits of “first-generation” biofuels and provides meaningful accounts on “second-generation,” biofuels that abolish direct competition between food and fuel associated with most first-generation biofuels. However, these systems demand a greater level of sophistication, investments per production unit, and more extensive facilities than first-generation biofuels. The transgenic production of cellulases from plants is being undertaken to increase the efficiency and production of both enzymes and lignocellulose degradation. The convergence of developments in biological sciences, including biotechnology, carbon capture, and storage and state-of-the-art bioconversion approaches enables the idea of a “fourth-generation” biofuels and bioenergy systems to be developed. Fourth-generation biofuels are thought to help reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions more efficiently than other biofuels by being more carbon-neutral or even carbon-negative.
