ABSTRACT
The development of biofuels derived from biological materials abundant with lignocellulosic biomass reduces the dependence of transportation systems on fossil fuels and emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) that contribute to global warming (Morales et al., 2015). However, modern biofuels production creates new problems, in particular:
– competition between the use of biomass for food or fuel production, – increased food prices, – limited land availability for cultivation of energy crops, – environmental impacts.
