Yes.
I do not like using links from companies related to the biofuels industry, but in this case, I could not find any other information on the internet about how much sulfur dioxide is released from burning biofuels.
It does get complicated, as there are all types of biofuels. The biofuels are reported as contributing much less air pollutants than diesel or gasoline, but they are not carbon (or sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide) neutral or zero emissions.

What are some examples of interaction between atmosphere and biosphere?
While the biosphere is that part of the Earth crust,water and even the atmosphere itsef that support life,the Atmosphere is the gaseous mass surrounding both the Earth and Water surfaces. Gaseous interactions existing between the Biosphere and Atmosphere as in the form of the following treated headings: 1. Global warming. The presence of heat- trapping Carbon Dioxide and the saturated hydrocarbon gases such as( methane) on the Earth's surface increase the Earth's overall temperature as they reflect their trapped heat back into the Earth. 2.Carbon dioxide. Carbon Dioxide exist as one of the constituent gases of the atmosphere.Both human respirations and combustions in the engine chambers of auto-mobiles give out carbon dioxide to the atmosphere as bye-products. 3.Green House Effect. The Green House Effect is the ability of an earthly atmosphere to reduce heat loss from its surface, thereby making it possible to use the direct solar radiation to warm the earth surface instead. 4.Emissions. Emissions are gaseous products that are discharged into the atmosphere during the combustion of natural fuel. Carbon monoxide is a good example of gas emitted into the atmosphere due to incomplete combustion of natural fuels. 5.Aerosols. These are compacted gases which discharge a high amount of Carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere when sprayed and their presence contribute to global warming. 6. Bio-fuels. Bio-fuels are different from natural fuels. They are defined as any kind of fuel created from biomass ( recently living organisms or their metabolic products, such as manure from cows).Unlike other natural sources such as petroleum , coal and nuclear fuels,bio-fuels are renewable energy source.Bio-fuels are said to be cation neutral, meaning that although they release carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere,they have already absorbed that carbon as plants.For this reason bio-fuels are championed by environmentalist as a way to reduce Carbon Dioxide emissions.
Why are biofuels used?
Bio fueles are used because they are a more eco friendly option than other fuel options. Bio fuels are eco friendly because they don't emit as much CO2 as others. Bio fuels are made from natural resources such as corn. Some people feel that Bio fuels are not a good way to replace other non eco friendly fuels since they use up our food sources. if we use more corn for fuel, then what will happen to all the people who need that corn? Like the people in the middle eastern countries.
What does Ammonium Succinate do?
It is used in foods, medicines, and in production of bio-fuels. See the link at the bottom of the page for more information.
What does burnt fuel make?
It depends on the fuel. If it is a fossil fuel you are always going to get carbon dioxide (CO2) and sometimes sulfur dioxide and other gases. But if you burn fuels like bio-gas you get less carbon dioxide emitted (released) and water vapour.
Are bio-fuels good?
Yes because they do not add polluting carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, causing global warming. (They release carbon dioxide that was recently removed from the air, so biofuels are carbon-neutral.)
What are Bio fuels Give examples?
Bio fuels are those fuels that are easier on the environment than petroleum-based fuels. Some examples are bio diesel and methane.
What is Using bio fuels instead of fossil fuels because bio fuels are renewable is an example of?
Sustainability? Green Living? Common Sense?
How are biofuels beneficial?
Biofuels are beneficial because they do not add carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere. They do release carbon dioxide when burnt, but it is carbon dioxide that was recently removed from the atmosphere when the vegetation was growing (bio-fuels are produced from various kinds of vegetation).The carbon dioxide emitted by fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) has been hidden away for millions of years, which is why releasing it now is increasing the greenhouse effect, causing global warming and climate change.
What other fuels are used in the same way as fossil fuels?
Bio fuel but bio fuel is cleaner to use
What is the adventage of bio fuels?
We dont have to use Fossil Fuels
Are bio fuels cleaner then petroleum fuels?
Yes, they are cleaner. Biofuels emit carbon dioxide (CO2) when burnt, but it is CO2 that was recently removed from the atmosphere (when the original plants were growing), so it is part of the carbon cycle and is not causing global warming.Petroleum fuels when burnt release carbon dioxide that has been hidden away for 300 million years. This is adding to greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere and is causing global warming and hence climate change.
Can you give few examples of low cost fuels?
some of the low cost fuels are bio ethanol,bio methanol,cellulose bio mass etc.
What are bio-fuels used for?
biofuels make energy from living things or their waste products
What are bio fuels made from?
Bio fuels are made from natural oils. These oils include, palm, soybean, and algae. Wood can also be made into a liquid bio fuel.
How is bio fuels produced?
bio fuel is produced by animal wastes
