  Biomass energy which includes producing energy fuel from plant is considered a promising source of renewable energy. This research aims to develop a new method to liquefy two types of agriculture waste and compare between their produced bio-oils in terms of ultimate production conditions, compositions and applications.Firstly, One gram of two different types of agriculture wastes include Corn sticks (CS) and Palm leaves (PL) were liquefied by autoclaving at 2.5 atm pressure and 220°C temperature. The liquefaction process had been performed in the range of 10 to 80 ml ethanol/g treated solid, and retention time ranges between 10 to 120 min., the produced bio-oil were extracted and separated into three fractions: volatile, light and heavy.The results show that, the maximum amount (0.04 g/g) of volatile bio-oil can be produced from CS at 40 ml ethanol/g treated solid and..
