What ingredients are in biomass fuel?
Gas, wood, and alcohol create biomass.
When gas oil and coal are burned what is added to the atmosphere?
when coal, oil, gas are burned pollution is added to the air
How is natural gas made?
Natural gas is not made but harvest like all other form of petroleum. Natural gas occurred in the same way as petroleum, a sediment of biomass in presence of pressure and heat from geothermal breakdown the biomass to liquid oil and gas. Determination if the oil well would produce natural gas, oil or coal is provided in the link.
When a pure alkane is burned which gas is not produced?
Sulfur Dioxide
When Natural gas is burned in a furnace is it endothermic or exothermic?
exothermic
Is coal biomass?
It is a biomass becauseit is burned for energy.
When burned does biomass let off carbon emissions?
Biomass releases carbon dioxide when burned.
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.
What are the affects of biomass on our ozone layer?
The biomass seems to maintain a level of oxygen, from which ozone is made. If biomass is burned, chlorinated / brominated compounds are released into the atmosphere, some small part of whihc make it to the ozone layer to increase depletion.
What is given off when biomass is burned?
CO2 primarily
How is the energy from biomass released?
Energy from biomass is released by combustion.
Can biomass be used for transportation?
Depends on you engine design - for example ... the early steam engines burned wood - which is defiantly biomass.
What ingredients are in biomass fuel?
Gas, wood, and alcohol create 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.
In the future will everybody use biomass and natural gas?
No, there is not enough biomass and natural gas is a finite fossil fuel.
Chemical energy is an example of what?
biomass, petroleum, natural gas, and propane
What type of energy released greenhouse gases when used to make electricity?
coal and natural gas
