The world is actively seeking alternatives for highly in-demand petroleum. Biofuels, as a renewable energy, is one of the best solutions. China 's total energy consumption already occupies the second place in the world. China central government pays special attention to biofues. Now there are 5 fuel ethanol plants and 10 provinces in China are using E10 (totally or partly). There are dozens of biodiesel production companies in China . The standard of biodiesel was issued. “Mid and Long Term Development Plan of Renewable Energies” was issued in 2007, where it is indicated that by 2010, annual consumption of non-grain based fuel ethanol shall reach 2 million tons, and that of biodiesel shall reach 200 000 tons in China . By 2020, annual consumption of fuel ethanol shall reach 10 million tons, and that of biodiesel shall reach 2 million tons in China .
The 6th World Bioenergy Symposium(WBS'2012) will bring together vital stakeholders from many nations. Participants from government agencies, universities and enterprises will help focus the actions that need to occur.
