Abstract
Many rely on fossil fuels as a primary source of energy to satisfy everyday needs of transportation and electricity. Within 45 years we will be facing a shortage of current fossil fuels thus research is being carried out to find alternative; one such alternative is biofuels. People have not considered biofuels as the next best alternative due to certain issues related to the efficiency, carbon emissions and food vs. fuel dilemma. We identified two solutions to the three given problems, namely direct ethanol fuel cell and switch grass.
