Abstract

There are frequent fluctuations in oil prices and decline in conventional fossil fuel reserves today. This scenario prompts serious deliberations on the need to target on non-conventional sources of energy. Currently, fossil fuels fulfill majority of the world energy needs and their share in the primary energy mix is on an ever increase. However, its extraction, which is uneconomical as of now-might cause grave damage to the environment [1]. These facts accentuate the prevalent impression that future energy requirements of the human race cannot be met entirely by fossil fuels. The consensus for alternate energy sources and sustainable development was strongly felt among the scientific community a few decades ago. Extraction of energy from renewable sources is one pragmatic step that can alleviate the crisis to a great extent. It seems most appropriate to discuss current strategies of fuel production from renewable sourcesthe non-conventional sources such as biomass and biowaste in particular. Biomass as alternate source of energy: Global and Indian scenario: Biomass and agricultural wastes have historically been used as the solid fuel since ancient times. Even today, around 2.6 million people in Asia and Africa rely solely on solid fuels such as agricultural wastes and cow dung for their energy requirements [2]. However, the combustion systems Microbial Fuel Cells as Alternate Source of Energy: Research, Advancements and Future Prospects in Indian Scenario
