2010 World Bioenergy Symposium(WBS'2010)
2010 World Bioenergy Symposium(WBS'2010) will be held from September 15 to 17, 2010, in Suzhou BioBAY, China. Please learn more updated information from our website. Abstract submission is available now! Please see the Call for papers.
Introduction
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 2020, annual consumption of fuel ethanol shall reach 10 million tons, and that of biodiesel shall reach 2 million tons in China.
The 5th World Bioenergy Symposium will bring together vital stakeholders from many nations. Participants from government agencies, universities and enterprises will help focus the actions that need to occur. Bioethanol and biodiesel technology, resources supply and incentives will be discussed in depth.
