Green algae as a biofuel (Abhijit Biswas)
A biofuel is a hydrocarbon that is made BY or FROM a living organism that we humans can use to power something.
Any hydrocarbon fuel that is produced from organic matter (living or once living material) in a short period of time (days, weeks, or even months) is considered a biofuel.
This contrasts with fossil fuels, which take millions of years to form and with other types of fuel which are not based on hydrocarbons (nuclear fission, for instance).
