Abstract
For fuels and fuel additives crude oil is worldwide the predominant source for the time being. The events of 1973 and 1978 indicating possible supply shortage and price explosions for gasoline and diesel fuel have stimulated interest and research in the field of alternative fuels. Those based on renewable energy sources seem to offer particular attractiveness, since solar energy is free of cost and the biomass availability is unlimited in comparison with fossil resources such as crude oil, coal or natural gas.
