Subproject 5


Biofuel Assessment

The overall aim of subproject 5 "Bio fuel assessment” is the detailed assessment of complete process chain liquid bio-fuels production based on ligno-cellulosic biomass feedstock. The assessment will consist of necessary major components such as: biomass resources assessment, biomass feedstock production and supply assessment, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and technology assessment of full conversion chain of liquid fuels production, environmental impact assessment, micro-economical analysis as well as socio-economic assessment of future development trends of biomass-based transportation fuels production and its relation with EU and accession countries policies (energy, environmental and agricultural). The different pathways that lead to liquid fuels will be evaluated and compared to each other.
