Bioliquid

<p ><b>Bioliquids</b>&nbsp;are liquid fuels made from biomass for energy purposes other than transport (i.e. heating and electricity).<sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference" ><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioliquids#cite_note-0" >[1]</a></sup>

Bioliquids are usually made from virgin or used vegetable and seed oils, like&nbsp;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_oil" title="Palm oil" >palm</a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soybean_oil" title="Soybean oil" >soya</a>&nbsp;oil. These oils are burned in a power station to create heat, which can then be used to warm homes or boil water to make steam. This steam can then be used to drive a turbine to generate electricity.</p>
