Butanol Synthesis Routes for Biofuel Production: Trends and Perspectives

Butanol Synthesis Routes for Biofuel Production: Trends and Perspectives

Butanol has similar characteristics to gasoline, and could provide an alternative oxygenate to ethanol in blended fuels. Butanol can be produced either via the biotechnological route, using microorganisms such as clostridia, or by the chemical route, using petroleum. Recently, interest has grown in...
