biomass as an energy source

How is biomass used as an energy source?
Biomass can be burned to create heat (direct), converted into electricity (direct), or processed into biofuel (indirect).
Biomass can be burned by thermal conversion and used for energy.
Thermal conversion involves heating the biomass feedstock in order to burn, dehydrate, or stabilize it._{19 oct. 2023}
What are examples of biomass energy sources?
Wood is still the largest biomass energy resource today.
Other sources include food crops, grassy and woody plants, residues from agriculture or forestry, oil-rich algae, and the organic component of municipal and industrial wastes.
What are the advantages of biomass?
Some of the advantages of biomass energy are:
Biomass is always and widely available as a renewable source of energy. It is carbon neutral. It reduces the overreliance of fossil fuels. Is less expensive than fossil fuels. Biomass production adds a revenue source for manufacturers. Less garbage in landfills.
Wood and wood waste is a major source of biomass energy, particularly in the Northwest.
Wood waste from thinning young timber stands and harvesting older stands for timber or pulp yield tops and branches suitable for bio-energy production.

Biomass is an important fuel in many countries, especially for cooking and heating in developing countries. Biomass sources for energy include: Wood and wood processing waste—firewood, wood pellets, and wood chips, lumber and furniture mill sawdust and waste, and black liquor from pulp and paper mills.
