Abstract

Looking up to a future energy crisis, new solutions have to appear. Using renewable natural means we can replace the existing demand for fossil fuels, preserving not only our non-renewable resources but also our environment. New technologies are making their way towards sustainability. Implementing different methods, such as the Fischer-Tropsch reaction, fuels like green diesel will be produced. With the help of these biofuels we will be able to reduce the exhaust emissions and fossil fuel consumption. Feedstock such as soybeans, palm trees will help develop a new way of life. These changes will not help only in the development of new fuels for the automotive industries but also in the food department, by producing cooking oil.
