Biofuel Research Journal

期刊简介：Biofuel Research Journal (BRJ) is an Open Access journal with completely Free-of-Charge publication policy (4 issues per year). BRJ publishes high-quality original articles, review articles, case studies, book reviews, short communications, and hypotheses on the fundamentals, applications, processing, and management of biofuel research and technologies. The journal’s aim is to advance and disseminate knowledge in all the biofuel-related areas of biodiesel, bioethanol, biobuthanol, biogas, biomass, algae, bioreactions, bioreactors, membrane-bioreactors, fermentation, biorefinery (e.g. membrane separation technology), bioprocess, applied microbiology, combustion, and bioresource technologies associated with conversion or production of biofuel.Moreover, novel and integrated biofuel processing and hybrid systems as well as energy audit for biofuel production plants are of interest. The journal also seeks to publish articles with a focus on the application of artificial photosynthesis for biofuels production, carbon footprint analysis, strategies for limiting green house gas (GHG) emissions, life cycle assessment (LCA) and exergy analysis of biofuel production/application pathways, compliance with the international standards (such as PAS 2050:2011 and ISO 14040:2006), technoeconomic analysis of biofuel production/application, impacts of biofuels production/consumption on climate change, futuristic pathways for biofuels production, and promotion of biofuel applications in the developing world for indigenous development. In addition to the above, BRJ also considers articles with a focus on on biofuels and bioproducts in Circular Economy and biofuels finance.Biofuel Research Journal is indexed in Scopus and Web of Science (also known as ISI Web of Science).Aims and Scope:• Biofuels: biodiesel, bioethanol, biobutanol, biogas, biofuels production, modeling, and economics• Bioproducts (including biocomposites and bio-based smart materials)• Bioprocesses and bioproducts: bioreactions, biocatalysis, bioreactors, membrane-bioreactors, modeling and optimization, scale-up, supercritical technology, ionic liquids, and fermentations• Biomass and feedstock utilization: bioconversion of agro-industrial residues• Biorefinery: membrane separation technology, adsorption, solvent extraction, etc.• Environmental protection: simultaneous biological waste treatment and biofuel production, clean development mechanism• Thermochemical conversion of biomass: combustion, pyrolysis, gasification, catalysis• Algal biofuel and energy crops, including energy crops genetic engineering• Application of artificial photosynthesis for biofuels production• Carbon footprinting analysis• Strategies for limiting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions• Life cycle assessment (LCA) analysis of biofuel production/application pathways• Exergy analysis of biofuel production/application pathways• Compliance with international standards (such as PAS 2050:2011 and ISO 14040:2006)• Techno-economic analysis of biofuel production/application• Impacts of biofuels production/consumption on climate change• Futuristic pathways for biofuels production• Biofuels and bioproducts finance• Biofuels and bioproducts in Circular Economy• Biofuel applications in the developing world for indigenous development
