Journal Title：Biofuels-uk

Current energy systems need a vast transformation to meet the key demands of the 21st century: reduced environmental impact, economic viability and efficiency. An essential part of this energy revolution is bioenergy.

The movement towards widespread implementation of first generation biofuels is still in its infancy, requiring continued evaluation and improvement to be fully realised. Problems with current bioenergy strategies, for example competition over land use for food crops, do not yet have satisfactory solutions. The second generation of biofuels, based around cellulosic ethanol, are now in development and are opening up new possibilities for future energy generation. Recent advances in genetics have pioneered research into designer fuels and sources such as algae have been revealed as untapped bioenergy resources.

As global energy requirements change and grow, it is crucial that all aspects of the bioenergy production process are streamlined and improved, from the design of more efficient biorefineries to research into biohydrogen as an energy carrier. Current energy infrastructures need to be adapted and changed to fulfil the promises of biomass for power generation.

Biofuels provides a forum for all stakeholders in the bioenergy sector, featuring review articles, original research, commentaries, news, research and development spotlights, interviews with key opinion leaders and much more, with a view to establishing an international community of bioenergy communication.

As biofuel research continues at an unprecedented rate, the development of new feedstocks and improvements in bioenergy production processes provide the key to the transformation of biomass into a global energy resource. With the twin threats of climate change and depleted fossil fuel reserves looming, it is vitally important that research communities are mobilized to fully realize the potential of bioenergy.

當(dāng)前的能源系統(tǒng)需要進(jìn)行大規(guī)模轉(zhuǎn)型，以滿足 21 世紀(jì)的關(guān)鍵需求：減少對(duì)環(huán)境的影響、提高經(jīng)濟(jì)可行性和效率。生物能源是這場(chǎng)能源革命的重要組成部分。

廣泛實(shí)施第一代生物燃料的運(yùn)動(dòng)仍處于起步階段，需要繼續(xù)評(píng)估和改進(jìn)才能完全實(shí)現(xiàn)。當(dāng)前生物能源戰(zhàn)略存在的問(wèn)題，例如對(duì)糧食作物土地利用的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，尚未得到令人滿意的解決方案。以纖維素乙醇為基礎(chǔ)的第二代生物燃料目前正在開(kāi)發(fā)中，為未來(lái)的能源生產(chǎn)開(kāi)辟了新的可能性。遺傳學(xué)的最新進(jìn)展開(kāi)創(chuàng)了設(shè)計(jì)燃料的研究，藻類(lèi)等來(lái)源已被揭示為尚未開(kāi)發(fā)的生物能源資源。

隨著全球能源需求的變化和增長(zhǎng)，從設(shè)計(jì)更高效的生物煉油廠到研究生物氫作為能源載體，簡(jiǎn)化和改進(jìn)生物能源生產(chǎn)過(guò)程的各個(gè)方面至關(guān)重要。當(dāng)前的能源基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施需要進(jìn)行調(diào)整和改變，以實(shí)現(xiàn)生物質(zhì)發(fā)電的承諾。

《生物燃料》為生物能源領(lǐng)域的所有利益相關(guān)者提供了一個(gè)論壇，其中包括評(píng)論文章、原創(chuàng)研究、評(píng)論、新聞、研究和開(kāi)發(fā)焦點(diǎn)、對(duì)關(guān)鍵意見(jiàn)領(lǐng)袖的采訪等等，旨在建立一個(gè)國(guó)際生物能源交流社區(qū)。

隨著生物燃料研究以前所未有的速度繼續(xù)發(fā)展，新原料的開(kāi)發(fā)和生物能源生產(chǎn)工藝的改進(jìn)是將生物質(zhì)轉(zhuǎn)化為全球能源資源的關(guān)鍵。隨著氣候變化和化石燃料儲(chǔ)量枯竭的雙重威脅迫在眉睫，動(dòng)員研究界充分發(fā)揮生物能源的潛力至關(guān)重要。
