Executive summary:
China has been faced with shortage of fossil fuel for a long time and it has been importing a large quantity of petroleum every year, for example, net importing XXX million tonnes, namely, XXX of its total consumption in 2008. This has underlined the urgency for China to develop substitutes for fossil fuel. On the other hand, its abundant resources have made it possible for this nation to develop biofuel products, the ideal alternative of fossil fuel. China has released a series of policies to promote biofuel industry development in recent years. The National Development and Reform Commission of China made a three-stage plan for the development of biofuels industry: ① Technology industrialization in the 11th five years; ② Industrial scale in the 12th five years; ③ Great development after 2015. In 2007, according to Zhu Zhigang, vice director of Ministry of Finance People’s Republic of China, bio-energy will take up XXX of China’s oil consumption by 2020; China’s biofuels capacity will reach XXX million tonnes in 2020, including XXX million tonnes of fuel ethanol and XXX million tonnes of biodiesel. China’s biofuel industry has made great achievement in recent years, though still at growth stage. Among all the biofuel products, fuel ethanol has developed best in China with strong support from the government. In 2008, among China’s total oil fuel consumption, about XXX million tonnes; biodiesel constituted XXX million tonnes, that is, XXX of all the oil fuel and fuel ethanol XXX million tonnes, equaling XXX. Both biodiesel and fuel ethanol takes up less than XXX of the total oil fuel consumption, suggesting their huge development potential. Now, most biofuel products in China are only the first generation ones. Technology adopting food feedstock to produce biofuels has become mature. In 2008, there were XXX manufacturers producing XXX tonnes of fuel ethanol and XX manufacturers producing XXX tonnes of biodiesel through first-generation technology. In 2009, there are XXX manufacturers trying to produce biofuel through second-generation technology.

In recent years, more and more feedstock, mainly including food feedstock, non-food feedstock, oilseed, cellulosic raw material, energy crop and waste oil, is used to produce fuel ethanol, as biofuels are becoming increasingly hot. At present, food feedstock is the major raw material of biofuel, including corn and wheat used to produce fuel ethanol. Corn has been the most popular raw material to produce fuel ethanol. But Chinese government has enacted regulations to restrict the use of corn in fuel ethanol production, because corn supply as food and feed source in China has been very tight with China’s large population and little corn has been imported into China for concerns of potential ecological danger from overseas GM corn. Cassava as non-food feedstock will be the major raw material of biofuel. Biofuel from cassava has advantage of lower production cost. In the south of China, the large area of wasteland will be ideal for potential cassava planting, which will provide a large quantity of feedstock for biofuel industry. At present, some domestic fuel giants have invested or will invest in large-scale cassava planting and in factories in Guangxi, Yunnan, Hainan to produce fuel ethanol. Corn cob and stover, wheat/rice straw are cellulosic materials for biofuel if China’s technology of second-generation biofuel matures. Their output in China is huge. Researches on biofuels are hot in China at present. Research on technology of biofuel in China focuses on enzymatic hydrolysis, fermentation, transesterification and pyrolysisi & gasification. At present, China's biomass liquid fuel industry is lagging behind in technology, with the following disadvantages: Low utilization efficiency of raw materials, high raw material consumption; High production cost and high energy consumption; Lack of complete production technology and matched equipment for Chinese non-food plants (cornstalks, rice straw, small polycarpa etc.). However, China's biofuel technology will be solved in the future. Researches on technology for the second generation of biomass liquid fuel (main raw materials are agricultural and forestry residues) has become the hotspot in China's universities and research institutions.
Character of CCM' Report:
The aim of this report is to provide powerful assistance to the strategy group and the management team in making correct decision as how to penetrate the ever-increasing China market and how to catch the maximum commercial opportunities. The report is formulated independently by CCM’s professional market researchers, based on the first-hand and primary data which are analyzed by scientific methodology, confirmed with both manufacturers/end users/traders and legal authorities, and presented in a logic way.

II Feedstock supply
Cassava alcohols Alcohols are the largest consumption field of cassava. In 2008, cassava alcohols output was about 0.72 million tonnes which needs to consume 5.4 million tonnes cassava. Cassava is a more appropriate raw material to produce alcohols compared with other raw materials. Table II-12 Economic benefit comparison of alcohols production using different raw materials in China
