The article reviews the world experience of technological diversification in the fuel hydrocarbons production sphere. It is shown that the lost classical technologies, such as coals destructive hydrogenation and coals gasification, are reviving on a new technology basis. Some technological methods of receiving liquid fuels from biomass of various origin are analyzed. The technological schemes of production of biofuels of three generations using a natural vegetable material, various productions wastes, as well as biomass of water organisms as a carbon source are presented. The estimation was made of production outputs and costs of synthetic fuels (dimethyl ether, biodimethyl ether, biodiesel, gasoline and others). The conditions for development of biofuel technologies were formulated.
