BiomassBiomass, in particular wood, has historically been an important energy source for fires, ovens and stoves. In the industrialization period of the late 19th century, coal displaced biomass because of its high energy density (28 vs. 18 MJ/kg) and because ...
Biomass pyramidIn the ongoing energy debate, biomass energy is getting a lot of play among politicians. To understand the concept, it first helps to understand the bio pyramid.
History of biomassOil prices are skyrocketing, OPEC is taking control, and governments promote ineffective remedies. This article promotes three effective countermeasures; producing biomass without interfering with food production, converting biomass into a petroleum substitute, and powering electricity generation with renewable energies. Fossil ...
Advantages of biomassRenewable energy is any source of energy that can be used without depleting its reserves including solar energy and other sources such as, wind, wave, biomass and hydro energy. The latter sources are indirectly derived from solar energy. It all ...
Advantages of biomassCombustion, which is used in many applications, is the most direct process for converting biomass into usable energy. Since prehistorically inhabitants of this planet learnt how to make fire, they converted biomass to useful energy by burning wood in a ...
alternative energyThe trend toward homes that are powered by alternative energy sources, ranging from wind turbines and solar collection cells to hydrogen fuel cells and biomass gases, is one that needs to continue into the 21st century and beyond. We have ...
Definition of biomassResearchers are working on new technology that will be able to do hydrolysis of cellulosic biomass to sugars and lignins and also the thermochemical conversion of biomass to synthesis gas for fermentation and catalysis of these platform chemicals to produce ...
BiogasBiogas is a type of fuel that is produced biologically through the breakdown of organic and naturally occurring matter in the absence of oxygen. The gas originates from biological matter. There are many types of biogas. One type is produced ...
Green_energyAlternative electricity generation is the wave of the future and will be very important for providing electricity years to come. Specifically the focus has moved from burning fossil fuels to using renewable energy sources. Burning gas, coal, and petroleum currently ...
