Abstract:

This paper discuss about the production of bio fuel by using the aquatic plant which will available in the  North America. In this process the it will produced the bio fuel which the renewable resources. The pretreatement process that requires the chemical will make the process a much costlier.  The bio fuel from the non aquatic plant will be used for the different uses this will not produce any adverse effects to the environment or any other natural resources.  The main concept of aquatic energy is to convert energy in the tropical and sub tropical région. In this it will also used to produce the luxurious furnitures and other materials. The water hyacinth can be used for the many other purposes.

Keywords:

Bio-Gas, non-renewable resources
