Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to invite you to submit a manuscript to the upcoming Special Issue, “Technologies for Biofuels and Energy”. This Special Issue focuses on technically advanced technologies of biological and thermal conversion platforms for biofuel and energy production. For the topic of biological conversion platforms, manuscripts that focus on the microbial conversion of biomass into butanol, ethanol, hydrogen, and biogas are welcomed. For thermal conversion, contributions that focus on pyrolysis, gasification, solar PV, and torrefaction are highly encouraged. Manuscripts that report process simulations using advanced software such as AspenPLus and ChemCad would be advantageous. The novelty in your submitted manuscript must involve a unique production scheme, sustainable production, energy security, or circular economy with zero discharge.
Prof. Dr. Malek Alkasrawi
Guest Editor
