This document provides an overview of biofuels markets, trends, and key players. It discusses the growing global production and demand for biofuels like ethanol and biodiesel. Major companies involved include Neste Oil, Saria Group, Cargill, and Musim Mas. While biofuel use is increasing, challenges remain around sustainability standards, raw material supply, and ensuring biofuels don't compete with food production. Emerging markets in Asia and Africa are expected to see strong growth in biofuel blending mandates and production in the coming years.
This annual report provides an overview of the activities of the European Biomass Association (AEBIOM) in 2014.

This document discusses sustainability policies for biofuels in the Netherlands and moving towards a biobased economy. It outlines the EU's 2020 targets for renewable energy, including a minimum 10% renewable energy in transport. Concerns about biofuels include competition with food, land use change, and greenhouse gas emissions. The EU and Netherlands have implemented sustainability certification requirements and approved certification schemes. Looking ahead, indirect land use change is a key issue, and the Netherlands aims to facilitate the transition from first to second generation biofuels while ensuring sustainability remains a prerequisite for a biobased economy.
The document summarizes a presentation given at a renewable fuels conference in Serbia.

Biobased chemicals value added products from biorefineriesJeinny Rodriguez
IEA Bioenergy Task42 deals with knowledge building and exchange within the area of biorefining, which is the sustainable processing of biomass into a spectrum of marketable bio-based products and bioenergy. The Task focuses on the co-production of fuels, chemicals, power and materials from biomass. It aims to support the development of biorefinery systems that can efficiently process biological feedstocks into a range of bio-based products and integrate into existing infrastructure. The Task has been operating since 2007 and involves multiple countries. It examines opportunities for bio-based chemicals and polymers from different biorefinery platforms and processes. The co-production of chemicals with biofuels can improve economics and help realize a bio
Avril is a major player in the oils and proteins sectors in France, processing over 50% of the country's oilseed production in its domestic facilities. The company reinvests all profits to support the development of integrated value chains and jobs in the French regions. Avril works closely with agricultural partners to support their initiatives for nutritional and environmental progress and ensure the sustainability of value chains from producers to consumers.

Nnfcc market review biofuels issue nineteen october 2013NNFCC
The document provides a summary of developments in the global biofuels market in October 2013. Key points include:
1) The world's largest cellulosic ethanol refinery plant was inaugurated in Crescentino, Italy, marking the commercialization of advanced biofuels in Europe.
2) However, the EU advanced biofuel industry suffered a setback when proposed reforms to biofuel mandates were delayed for at least another year due to upcoming elections.
3) In the US, the LIBERTY cellulosic ethanol plant is nearing completion and several states are now offering the public E15 blended fuel at pumps, indicating growing acceptance of biofuels.
The document discusses the concept of a bio-economy and services provided by a bio-economy consultancy. The consultancy offers four services to help clients realize their bio-economy goals: research, experimentation, process design/modeling, and project commissioning. Examples are given of leading bio-economy companies in areas like biofuels, biochemicals, and sustainable waste recovery.
