Biofuels are fuels created from biological materials such as algae, corn, trash, and sugarcane. To get started on the path to a career as a biofuels processing technician, invent a fuel! Here’s what to do:
Step 1: Go online to research existing biofuels (ex: ethanol, trash, etc.) – you can’t create something that already exists!
Step 2: Invent a new biofuel that can be used for energy.
Step 3: Since you are a biofuels processing technician, create a one-page directions sheet to train other biofuels processing technicians how to use your biofuel. What equipment is needed? Is it burned? How is the energy converted?
Step 4: Share your biofuel invention in the Student Showcase to build your resume!
