Abstract

Development of sustainable energy resources is a major concern in front of the scientific community and stakeholders in this field. Invariably, fossil fuels are utilized to meet the major part of energy demand all over the world, but their stocks are limited. Burning of fossil fuels also causes significant environmental pollution that results in drastic climate change. There is an emergent need of an alternative to fulfill the current energy demand in a sustainable way along with sorting out the pollution issues. Microbial biofuels could be the most appropriate choice in this regard because it bears enormous potential that needs to be exploited. But it has some challenging issues to employ it to meet out the current energy demands. This chapter illustrates the microbial biofuels, harvesting techniques, different process, and potential to utilize them as sustainable energy sources along with considerable challenges that need to be addressed to make it an eco-friendly and economic fuel choice to pave the path of sustainable development.
