Objective
Student is aware about different types of biofuel feedstock resources and potential. He knows the principles of combustion engine and he knows the suitability of biofuels for it. Student can estimate environmental impacts and energy balance of biofuel production. He can produce bioethanol and RME and he can estimate the quality of the product. He knows the principles of the BTL production. Student is familiar with biogas traffic use possibilities and he knows how to purify and distribute traffic biogas. He knows the potential of electric and hybrid cars in traffic and he can design charging systems
