This book presents the groundbreaking discoveries, recent developments, and future perspectives of one of the most important areas of renewable energy research%u2014the heterogeneous catalytic production of fuels. Featuring chapters authored by leading experts, the text describes alternative ways to produce fuels from renewable sources using environmentally friendly technologies, while exposing the advantages and disadvantages of each process. It also considers the impact of fuel transportation, suggesting production in close proximity to the existing grid and/or production of liquid fuels that are easier to transport.
