What is the source of biomass energy?

the sources of biomass energy are garbage, wood, waste, landfill gases, and alcohol fuels.


Does biomass energy come from plants?

Biomass Energy is energy derived from biomass fuels. Biomass fuels are organic fuels mainly of plant origin, the biomass being formed in living plants by the process of photosynthesis and stored in complex polymers like lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. All these three are the constituents of biomass fuels (wood, agric. wastes, etc). This stored energy is released during combustion or burning, the latter being a reverse of photosynthesis during which biomass say wood burns in oxygen producing heat energy, carbon dioxide and water.


How does photosynthesis produse biomass?

Biomass fuels come from living things. Wood is a biomass fuel. As long as we continue to plant new trees to replace those cut down, we will always have wood to burn. Just as with the fossil fuels, the energy stored in biomass fuels came originally from the Sun.


What percent of biomass fuels is used for energy in the us?

83%


In what way are biomass and fossil fuels similar?

Fossil fuels and biomass fuels have similar origins. Firewood is an example of a biomass fuel. Fossil fuels are similar to biomass in that their creation also begins with microorganisms and plants using energy from the sun to fix CO2 into carbohydrates but there are several more steps in the creation of fossil fuels.
