Manufacturing mapped out
12 March 2010
Biofuels have a role in addressing the challenges of energy security and climate change. However, a debate on the impact associated with indirect land use change has led the UK government to review their uptake.
Interest in advanced biofuels has intensified with investment in the development of alternative feedstocks and bio and thermochemical production processes.
The UK can make a significant contribution to the global development of low carbon biofuels and collaborative projects between academia and industry are vital as we move forward. The ‘Biofuels Research Gap Analysis’ produced by DEFRA and DFT listed many key questions to be addressed in the move for sustainable biofuels production.
At a time when the EU and UK governments are consulting with policy-makers, researchers and industry about the UK’s future research strategy, companies and research institutes with an interest in ANY aspect of biofuels should attend this event.
Come to our Biofuels East 2010 Conference to examine:
- indirect land use change, sustainability and certification issues
- the role of biofuels in a sustainable transport sector in the UK
- biofuels R&D in the UK: strengths and gaps
- the latest developments in perennial crops
- opportunities for algal biofuels
- tailor-made processes for lignocellulosic biofuels
- advances in biomethane
- the potential of thermochemical technologies.
