When burned does biomass let off carbon emissions?
Biomass releases carbon dioxide when burned.
Is there a flow chart that can show how biomass energy works?
Not that I know of, however, it is basically like this. Garbage, ,manure or wood is burned, heat is given off and that's biomass, water can be added to make steam, that's also biomass.
What gas released when fossil fuels are burned is also given off when biomass is burned?
That would be carbon dioxide (CO2).The amount of carbon compounds (like CO2) that the creation or use of a given fuel source releases into the environment is known as its carbon footprint.
Is coal biomass?
It is a biomass becauseit is burned for energy.
What device analyzes the light given off when an element is burned?
A spectrometer analyzes the light given off when an element is burned.
Can biomass be used for transportation?
Depends on you engine design - for example ... the early steam engines burned wood - which is defiantly biomass.
Is biofuel and biomass the same thing?
No, it isn't. Biomass is any organic material. A moldy piece of cheese in your fridge might be biomass, but it definitely isn't biofuel. Biomass is organic material that is made from plants and animals, which are microorganisms. They can be burned as fuel, or biofuel (if there is a fireplace, the wood that is burned is a biofuel). It is burned for the energy, such as cooking over it, or just to stay warm. It is also a renewable source. Biomass fuels provide about 4% of the energy used in the United States.
What gas is given off when coal burns?
Carbon dioxide is the gas given off. Oil also gives off the same gas when burned.
The total amount of living tissue within a given trophic level is called the?
biomass!
Examples of biomass that you or someone you know has thrown in the trash recently?
Anything that can be burned is waste biomass. Plastic, paper, garbage, and the like.
