Fossil Fuels and Biofuels

Fuel as energy resource was known and used since the human was created by God ( i Think...) . The first time fuels are woods and leafts that falll from the plants and used for cooking, then fuels was developed into more efficient fuels as another solid fuels,liquid fulels, and gas.

Right now fuels devide into two major kind of fuels :
1. Irregenerative Fuels Materals
are the fossilfuels, based of crude oils ad natural gas that we explored from the earth years to years.

2. Regenerative Fuels Matereals
are the biofuels that made from renewable resource such as biomass,crops,etc trough several production steps: Dextruxtion,Fermentation, and transesterification.

Fossil fuels still dominan on the people consumption at transportation and Industrial sector. As we know at middle of 2008 many expert and company tray to make biofuels development becouse the increase fossil fuels price trough US$140/barrel, but at the beggining 2009 fossil fuels price decrease into less then US$40/barrel.This cause the biofuels consumption decrease becouse biofuels is much expensive then fossil fuels.

Biofuels known as an alterantive for save energy and an solution for global warning problem.But with this situation ( biofuels is expensive) will be hard for us to change our mind and use biofuels for our vehicle and cooking. I think the wise action that we can do start at home is mix the fossil fuels with biofuels, at least reduce the environment risk.
