Biofuel Production from the Wastes of Fisheries: An Alternative to Petroleum

Biofuel Production from the Wastes of Fisheries: An Alternative to Petroleum Authors: Shubham Parsoya and Chhagan Lal Parsoya Abstract: The importance of biofuels from an energy point of view as well as a reliable substitute to petroleum is significantly growing all over the world. The encouragement in the utilization of green energy and clean energy directs the world toward biofuel as an energy source. India had already announced its National Biofuel Policy for encouraging biofuel production in the country. All over the world, billion metric tons of waste are generated because of fisheries by fish processing units. And because of the lack of adequate knowledge of waste management treatment, when all such fisheries waste when untreated, results in the degradation of the land, which causes environmental pollution. Whereas, a possible solution for all these problems already present, in which the fisheries wastes can be processed into biofuel. Biofuel is a gravitate idea, which is pollution-free as well as a potential replacement for petroleum-based fuels. Biodiesel generated very fewer number of pollutants, such as air toxins, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons, and particulate materials in comparison to our traditional petroleum fuel. Biodiesel (biofuel) is a clean and green fuel. And the manufacturing of biofuel involves a very straightforward process in comparison to fossil fuel generation. The methodology utilized for this study was descriptive, which was based upon the information collected from numerous secondary data sources. Indian is showing an increasing trend of utilization of Biofuel, as in 2019-20, the consumption of biofuels was recorded at approximately 16.25 million barrels. Which shows a remarkable level of amplification of almost 24.3% in the Average Annual Growth Rate (AAGR).
