What are the Advantages of Using First Generation Feedstocks?
- Renewable Resource: These feedstocks are renewable and can be harvested annually. - Carbon Neutrality: The carbon dioxide released during the combustion of biofuels is offset by the carbon dioxide absorbed during the growth of the feedstocks. - Economic Benefits: Provides additional income streams for farmers and can stimulate rural economies. - Established Technology: The catalytic processes for converting these feedstocks into biofuels are well-established and commercially viable.
