The Basics

What is Biofuel?

Biofuel is any fuel derived from biomass — living or recently living organic matter such as plants, agricultural waste, or animal fat. Unlike fossil fuels that take millions of years to form, biofuels are renewable and can be produced continuously from biological sources.

India generates enormous quantities of organic waste and agricultural residue annually. Biofuel technology converts this waste into clean, high-energy fuel — reducing pollution, dependence on imported crude oil, and creating rural livelihoods in the process.

Types

Four Types of Biofuel

MX100 BioEnergy distributes all four major biofuel categories across Bihar & Jharkhand.

Type 01

Biodiesel

Produced by transesterification of vegetable oils or animal fats. Used as a direct diesel replacement (B7, B20, B100) in trucks, buses and generators.

B7 / B20 / B100 BIS Certified
Type 02

Bio E-Petrol

Bio-ethanol blended with petrol. Fermented from sugarcane, corn or rice straw, it reduces carbon emissions while boosting octane rating for petrol engines.

E10 / E20 Petrol Engine
Type 03

Bio CBG

Compressed BioGas from anaerobic digestion of agricultural waste, municipal solid waste and sewage sludge. CNG equivalent with near-zero sulfur emissions.

CNG Equivalent Zero Sulfur
Type 04

EV Charging

Solar & grid-tied electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The cleanest energy pathway — zero tailpipe emissions and a complement to the biofuel ecosystem.

Solar Powered Zero Emission
Production

How Biofuel is Made

From raw biomass to clean fuel — a five-stage process that turns waste into energy.

🌾
Step 01

Feedstock Collection

Crops, waste oil, agricultural residue and biomass collected from farms.

🔬
Step 02

Pre-treatment

Raw material cleaned, dried, and prepared for conversion.

⚗️
Step 03

Conversion

Transesterification, fermentation or anaerobic digestion converts biomass into biofuel.

🧪
Step 04

Purification

Refined and tested to meet BIS quality standards.

Step 05

Distribution

MX100 dealers deliver to fleet operators, stations and end users.

Benefits

Why Biofuel Matters

Biofuel delivers benefits across three pillars: environment, economy, and energy security.

Environmental

Cleaner Air & Climate

  • Up to 80% reduction in particulate matter vs diesel
  • Near-zero sulphur oxide emissions
  • Carbon-neutral lifecycle emissions
  • Biodegradable — safe spills vs fossil fuels
Economic

Savings & Growth

  • Reduces India's crude oil import bill by billions
  • Biofuel typically 15–25% cheaper than fossil fuel
  • Higher income for farmers selling feedstock
  • New dealership & franchise business models
Energy Security

Independence & Stability

  • Domestically produced — no geopolitical risk
  • Stable supply chain from local agriculture
  • Works with existing fuel infrastructure
  • Bridges gap to full EV transition

Government Policy

India's National Biofuel Policy 2018

India's National Biofuel Policy 2018 sets an ambitious roadmap to achieve 20% blending of biofuels in diesel and petrol by 2030. This policy promotes domestic production, reduces crude oil imports, and drives rural income.

Biodiesel Blending (B20 Target) 20% by 2030
Ethanol Blending in Petrol (E20) 20% by 2025
SATAT Scheme — Bio CBG Plants 5,000 plants
NBP 2018
National Biofuel Policy

Comprehensive framework for biofuel production, procurement and utilization across India.

SATAT
Sustainable Alt. Towards Aff. Transportation

MoP&NG scheme to set up 5,000 compressed biogas plants targeting 15 MMT annual output.

E20
Ethanol Blending Program

20% ethanol blending in petrol to reduce import dependency and support sugarcane farmers.

Generations

Biofuel Generations Explained

Biofuel technology has evolved through multiple generations, each improving sustainability and efficiency.

1G
🌽
1st Generation

Food Crop Biofuels

Made from edible crops like corn, sugarcane, soy, and palm. Simple to produce but raises food vs fuel debate.

Examples: Corn ethanol, Soy biodiesel
2G
🌿
2nd Generation

Agricultural Waste

Derived from non-food biomass — straw, wood chips, bagasse, municipal waste. No competition with food supply.

Examples: Cellulosic ethanol, Bio CBG
3G
🌊
3rd Generation

Algae-Based Fuels

Produced from algae that grow rapidly and absorb CO₂. High oil yield per acre with minimal land use.

Examples: Algal biodiesel, Algal biogas
4G
🔬
4th Generation

Electrofuels / Synthetic

Uses engineered microorganisms and solar energy to produce fuels. Carbon-negative potential with future scalability.

Examples: Solar biofuels, Electrofuels
