Biomass generally refers to recently-produced biologic material; most commonly, wood and other plant matter. Some definitions include peat (but not coal) as a form of biomass. The vast majority of biomass used for energy production is burned, with the heat used to generate steam. The steam is used to drive turbines connected to electric generators. In the U.S., biomass fuel is used primarily in the paper and wood pulp industries, which produce large enough quantities of waste material to make the process economically viable.

How is biomass created or gathered?

Biomass is created through the process of photosynthesis in plants, where they use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce organic matter. It can also be gathered from organic waste materials such as crop residues, wood chips, and manure, which are then processed into usable forms like wood pellets or biogas for energy production.
