Biofuels
Biofuels, such as biodiesel and bioethanol,
are widely derived from biomass (plants and
other organic waste) and provide an
attractive alternative to fossil fuels.
These fuels have many different applications.
In rural areas they can power mechanized
milling or small scale electrification systems.
In the cities, biofuels are especially used in
the transport sector adding to the reduction
of greenhouse gas emissions.

Biochemical Conversion
A
microbial electrolysis cell can be used to directly make hydrogen gas from
plant matter
As biomass is a natural material, many highly efficient biochemical processes
have developed in nature to break down the molecules of which biomass is
composed, and many of these biochemical conversion processes can be
harnessed.
Biochemical conversion makes use of the enzymes of bacteria and other
micro-organisms to break down biomass. In most cases micro-organisms are
used to perform the conversion process: anaerobic digestion, fermentation
and composting. Other chemical processes such as converting straight and
waste vegetable oils into biodiesel is transesterification.[34] Another way of
breaking down biomass is by breaking down the carbohydrates and simple
sugars to make alcohol. However, this process has not been perfected yet.
Scientists are still researching the effects of converting biomass
