description The aim of this paper is to provide a review of the most promising opportunities for sustainable biofuel generations in Bangladesh. Many researchers provide their opinions with their experimental results, but there has been no overall statistics and potentiality for the sustainable production of biofuel such as bioethanol and biodiesel in Bangladesh. The paper reviews the recent statistical conditions and the potential of biodiesel and bioethanol production in Bangladesh compared to other countries. Basically, the paper focuses on the potentiality of various biofuel feedstocks like as soybean oil, mustard oil, cottonseed oil, sesame oil, coconut oil, algae, rubber seed oil, jatropha, karanja oil, castor, bahera, neem, rice bran oil, pitraj and also different types of residues, crops, fruits, wastes. Among these reviewed papers, it is revealed that Bangladesh can generate annually about 0.16 million tons of edible oil. In addition, Bangladesh has the ability to produce about 1001881 tons of biodiesel from 2387500 tons of non-edible oil. Also, 0.04 million metric tons of biodiesel can be made from rubber seed oil. On the other hand, about 32 metric tons of bioethanol from 65.36 metric tons of agricultural crop residues, and about 143670082.36 gallons of bioethanol from 10.22 million metric tons of potato that is enough to meet the demand of 5% bioethanol blend annually. Furthermore, Bangladesh can produce 31.65 million metric tons of bioethanol from rice residue and 1.34 million metric tons of crude rice bran oil from rice husk of the paddy. It is conjectured that these annual production of various feedstocks can be used as major sources of biofuel and also can meet the demands of biofuel in Bangladesh.
