| Abstract | The wide assortment of feedstocks and technologies being considered within the energy market hold great potential for the future generation of biofuels. Even though these biofuel feedstocks will be derived from plants or recycled materials, thus reducing their overall environmental impact compared with fossil fuels, the level of sustainability for each feedstock and fuel type remains highly variable. Clearly, to achieve a sustainable energy future, it will be critically important to consider three important characteristics of each biofuel source and process: energy return on energy investment (EROEI), greenhouse gas emissions, and finally the broader implications on the environment when a |
