Biomass energy is made by burning living things like trees, crop residues, and other “woody biomass” to produce electricity. Like fossil fuels, biomass energy releases loads of planet-heating carbon ...
Bioenergy is produced from a variety of organic materials, called biomass, such as wood, charcoal, dung and other manures for heat and power production, and agricultural crops for liquid biofuels.
The resulting lignocellulosic biomass produces bio-oils that contain roughly 40% oxygenated organic compounds, which are unstable and corrosive. The second stage involves upgrading the oil via ...
