Energy gets into biomass when planets use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar.
Biomass power is power that comes from plants. Biofuel, as the source of biomass power is called, costs about $5,000 a ton. Crops used as biofuel are mainly corn, soy, and sometimes wood.
Biomass is any vegetation that will burn to produce electricity in a power station.
biomass gets it's energy when something had burned or died,for example if a tiger dies the energy is from the tiger and if something has burnt like coal then the energy is inside the coal
A biomass converter, also known as a biomass boiler or biomass power plant, is typically used to convert biomass into electricity, heat, or biofuels through processes such as combustion, gasification, or anaerobic digestion.
Some disadvantages of biomass power stations include emissions of greenhouse gases and air pollutants during the burning process, the potential competition with food crops for biomass sources, and the requirement for large land areas to grow biomass crops. Additionally, biomass power generation can sometimes be more expensive than fossil fuels or other renewable energy sources.
The amount of land needed for a biomass power plant varies depending on factors like the plant's capacity, location, and type of biomass used. On average, a biomass power plant may require anywhere from 1 to 5 acres of land. Additionally, space is needed for storage of the biomass fuel and for other infrastructure like access roads and buildings.
When you build houses and roads over where the biomass grew. When the biomass takes longer than a human lifetime to regenerate. When the biomass culture destroys the ecosystem. ================= Thus in terms of fuel to power humanity it is clear that biomass in NOT a renewable resource.
From a Power Station point of view: It can lower the efficiency of boilers when it is used by plants which mix it with other combustible materials. Eg: A coal fired power station can only mix a very limited amount of biomass with the coal to run the boilers efficiently. It requires a large space to be stored correctly. Biomass gets wet very easily and holds moisture. This may mean it has to be disposed of or dried out before it can be used, which requires extra plant and energy to run. Some hardwoods used in biomass can, in very rare cases, cause cancer. When the biomass is turned into woodchip, the dust is easily inhaled.
