Biofuels: An Alternative to Fossil Fuel

The most perplexing international problem concerning the fate of our planet is the issue of global warming. There are a number of complex factors governing the resolution of this extremely important environmental challenge. The decrease in world-wide fossil fuel reserves coupled with an increase in carbon dioxide emissions from the combustion of hydrocarbons makes it imperative that alternative...

Microbial Fuel Cell: A New Alternative Technology to Generate Electricity from Organic Matter

Synthesis of Nanostructured Materials for Storing Hydrogen as an Alternative Source to Fossil Fuel Derivatives

The decline in global reserves of fossil fuels due to the increasing energy demand has caused the petrochemical industry to be interested in finding new energy sources. An alternative that should be considered is the technology based on hydrogen as it is friendly to the environment and its combustion is greenhouse. The technology based on hydrogen considers the synthesis of metal-organic materi...
