As the demand for energy increases and fossil fuel resources are depleted, the search for clean sources of energy has intensified worldwide. This is coupled with a strong global desire to reduce CO₂ emissions to curb global warming. Brunei Darussalam is committed to reduce its CO₂ emissions but currently utilizes fossil fuels to meet almost all of its energy requirements. This situation provides good incentives to search for renewable and sustainable resources to produce energy in the country. Acacia species are exotic species that have invaded and spread to natural habitats in Brunei Darussalam. Acacia species are a sustainable source of high quality biomass feedstock to produce bioenergy in the country. Hot tropical weather of the country is highly suitable for the rapid growth of Acacias without requiring any major agricultural input. This study reviews the thermochemical conversion of Acacia species especially; Acacia mangium and Acacia auriculiformis to produce biofuels and bio-products. The prospective of using Acacia biomass as feedstock in pyrolysis, gasification, liquefaction and combustion is also discussed. Acacia biomass is a sustainable and renewable energy resource for Brunei Darussalam to be exploited for energy requirements and can be beneficial for the economy of the country by providing new investment and employment opportunities.

随着对能源需求的增加和化石燃料资源的枯竭，全球范围内对清洁能源的搜寻日益激烈。这与减少二氧化碳₂排放以遏制全球变暖的强烈的全球愿望相结合。文莱达鲁萨兰国致力于减少其CO ₂排放，但目前利用化石燃料来满足其几乎所有的能源需求。这种情况为寻找可再生和可持续资源以在该国生产能源提供了良好的动力。相思树种是已入侵并扩散到文莱达鲁萨兰国的自然栖息地的外来物种。金合欢物种是该国生产生物能源的高质量生物质原料的可持续来源。该国炎热的热带气候非常适合相思树的快速增长，而无需任何主要的农业投入。这项研究特别回顾了相思树种的热化学转化。马占相思和金合欢生产生物燃料和生物产品。还讨论了使用金合欢生物质作为原料进行热解，气化，液化和燃烧的前景。金合欢 生物质是文莱达鲁萨兰国的一种可持续和可再生能源，可用于能源需求，并通过提供新的投资和就业机会，可以为该国的经济带来好处。
