HICoE - Centre for Biofuel and Biochemical Research

Overview & Aspiration

A variety of fuels can be produced from biomass resources including liquid fuels, such as, ethanol, methanol, biodiesel and gasoline, and gaseous fuels, such as hydrogen and methane. Biofuels are primarily used on fuel vehicles, but can also fuel engines or in fuel cells for electricity generation. Through thermo chemical conversion research, the Centre is developing technologies to convert biomass such as trees, grass and other materials to fuels and materials. These biofuels will reduce the nation's dependence on fossil fuel, improve air quality and support rural economies.

Scientific paper writing is one of the essential elements in the academic arena globally. The purpose of scientific writing is to convey important findings from experiments and scientific analysis to a wider audience for the improvement of science and technology. However, lack of understanding on the scientific paper writing skills and manuscript publishing procedures have always resulted in paper rejection by the editors, especially from the journals of high impact.
