PROSPECTS FOR THE USE OF BIOFUELS IN KAZAKHSTAN SADVOKASSOVA A. K.
Master degree student, Tor Vergata University, Rome The scientific article discusses the prospects for the use of biofuels
in Kazakhstan in the near future, as well as mini-studies on the current
state of economic development and extraction of oil and other minerals
in Kazakhstan. In addition, based on the study, conclusions were drawn
about the main reasons for the slowdown in the transition to biofuels,
as well as various regions were identified where this area would take
root in the best way and could significantly reduce the consumption of
non-renewable resources.
Today, scientists around the world are concerned about the problem
of depletion of fossil fuel reserves. Volatility in energy prices does not
add optimism. The current state of the energy sector is characterized by
a shortage of resources and pollution of the environment by hazardous
waste from various industries. In this regard, many countries are paying
attention to renewable energy sources, including biofuels.
Speaking of resources, in the scientific system they are divided
into renewable and non-renewable. Nonrenewable resources are
natural substances that are not replenished with the speed at which it
is consumed; it is a finite resource like fossil fuels such as oil, natural
gas, coal. When renewable resources are resources that can be used
repeatedly and do not run out because they are naturally replaced, such as
solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and biomass energy. In comparison with
other renewable resources biomass can be converted into a combustible
liquid fuel - biofuel. Biofuels can be of both animal and plant origin,
and at the moment scientists are trying to replace traditional fuels from
non-renewable resources with those produced from renewable raw
materials[1, p. 104]. Ordinary firewood or sunflower oil, which we
use in everyday life in absolutely all regions of Kazakhstan, can be
attributed to the still-functioning biofuel. However, diesel and gasoline
displaced these types of fuels due to lower prices, and by how much
