Biomass

Biomass is a fuel which is derived from organic materials and is a sustainable and renewable source of energy used to generate electricity or different forms of power. Biomass is mostly found in the form of living or recently living plants and biological wastes from industrial and home use while there are other forms too. Some examples that makes biomass fuels are: woods, garbage, crops, Manure, Landfill gas, alcohol gas etc. Conversion of biomass into bio fuel can be achieved through various different methods which are broadly classified into: thermal, chemical, and biochemical methods. Till now wood is the largest biomass energy source to date; some examples are like forest residues (such as dead trees, branches and tree stumps), yard clippings, wood chips and even municipal solid waste. Biomass can be converted to different effective forms of energy like methane gas or transportation fuels like ethanol and biodiesel. Fuel derived from Biomass also produces air pollution in the form of Carbon monoxide, Carbon dioxide, Nitrogen oxides, Volatile organic compounds, particulates and other pollutants at levels above compared to those conventional fuel sources such as coal or natural gas in some cases (such as with indoor heating and cooking).
