“Biofuels” and “Bioenergy” are catchfire buzzwords that have generated global interest, spawning exponentially increasing information on new concepts and new developments/innovations for alternative fuels. A wide array of biofuel products and technologies are cropping up fast, and sometimes information overload can overwhelm the power of informed choice. Technical terms like “Fischer-tropsch”, “biobutanol”, “pyrolysis”, “thermal depolymerization”, etc, can be quite dizzying. For those who wish to catch up with the latest concepts in bioenergy (in a non-intimidating, encyclopedic way), “Biofuel Wiki” is an online knowledge portal which can provide user-friendly information about almost anything related to bioenergy. The knowledge portal also has comprehensive sections on bioenergy news, events, technical information resources, a comprehensive biofuels glossary and featured blogs, among others.
