Abstract
Abstract To accurately predict the impact of various species of plants on environment is a very difficult task, because their characteristics and specificities together with the external conditions of climate and fauna lead to very complicated systems that are difficult to analyze. The paper aims to assess two technical plants that may be used for the production of biofuels, namely Jerusalem artichoke and Sweet sorghum in evaluating fuel production efficiency and the possibility of being regarded as a viable solution for ecosystem conservation.
