bioconversion
The process of converting organic materials into fuel is called biomass conversion. This can involve different methods such as fermentation, pyrolysis, or anaerobic digestion to produce biofuels like biogas, biodiesel, or ethanol.
LPG, which stands for Liquefied Petroleum Gas, is not considered organic as it is a fossil fuel derived from natural gas processing and crude oil refining. Organic materials are generally derived from living organisms and do not involve the processing of fossil fuels.
Some applications are: - solvent - fuel - material in organic chemical synthesis
fuel for cellular respiration and a starting material for making other organic molecules

Oil is called a fossil fuel because it was formed from the remains of ancient organisms like plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. These organisms decayed and were trapped underground, eventually transforming into oil under high pressure and heat. There are no actual fossils in oil, but the term "fossil fuel" refers to its origin from organic matter.
Diesel fuel itself is not organic. It is a refined petroleum product produced from crude oil through a process called fractional distillation.

Coal formed from organic material like dead plants in ancient swamps that were buried under layers of sediment. Over millions of years, heat and pressure transformed this organic material into coal. The process of coal formation is called coalification.
Coal is already considered a fossil fuel since it is formed from plant remains that have been subjected to high pressure and heat over millions of years. The process involves the burial and subsequent transformation of organic material into coal through a process called coalification.
