India imports Service, etc. Besides, the authors of selected papers will be contacted after the petroleum to an extent of 80 % of its total requirement. It implies that oil prices and oil conference for extending / revising / editing as per the journal’s requirements for availability are not under our control and such a kind of dependence on imports leads to publication in a widely indexed, UGC approved journal without any additional cost. energy insecurity. In this context, renewable sources of energy especially bioenergy REGISTRATION gains significance. Besides, biomass is a storehouse of various chemicals.
