Dr. Llamas is a professor in the area of project management at the Polytechnic University of Madrid. His specialization and participation in research projects has been related to the energy and resources of the subsoil. Specifically, in the area of production of microalgae for energy purposes, the geological storage of CO2 and, recently in the production of biomethane. There are several scientific articles and international patents that relate the indicated research.
The concept of sustainability is already applied in all industrial sectors. The fight against climate change therefore forces us to look for alternatives in the way we move. Different alternative fuels are discussed in this book: from liquid and gaseous biofuels to electricity. Moreover, waste to fuel processes are another option to produce a significant amount of fuels. In the spirit of this book, there is not only collecting different alternatives, but creativity is also promoted in the readers of this book, so that they take an active part of the solution necessary to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

According to the recent information, CO2 concentration in the atmosphere reached 402 ppm at the beginning of 2016. On the other hand, fossil fuels remain as the major source to produce energy. The International Energy Agency estimate that those fuels will remain as the most used source during coming decades.
