Biomass energy comes from growing vegetation and then burning it to produce energy. This can be done quickly and locally and many organic materials can be used, often the residue from sugar cane or the offcuts from sustainable timber. This is why it is cheap. It is also carbon neutral so it does not affect global warming.
No, biomass is just an organic matter.
Biomass energy is a form of potential energy, as it is stored in organic materials such as plants and animal waste. When this biomass is burned or converted into other forms of energy, it is transformed into kinetic energy that can be used to power various applications.
The sun. Biomass could not have grown without sunlight.
Biomass production refers to the process of growing and harvesting organic materials like plants or crops to be used as a source of energy. These materials can be converted into biofuels, such as ethanol or biodiesel, through processes like fermentation or combustion. Biomass production is considered a renewable energy source as the organic materials can be regrown.
As it decays bacteria catalyses a chemical reaction to release methane and heat. When you burn it a chemical reaction occurs between the biomass and oxygen that releases light and heat. Biomass contains potential energy that can be chemically released.
Biomass
advantages of biomass energy is that it 1. can be found almost everywhere and 2. it is cheap
biomass is not cheap..biomass would cost almost twice as much on average as gas or coal-fired electricity.
Biomass is material derived from living organisms. The term biomass for energy is often used to refer to plant based materials, but it can equally apply to animal, as well as vegetable matter--the key is 'living organisms'. So no, biomass engergy does not ONLY come from plants.
biomass burning is perceived as being a sensible form of energy generation. ... So the potential is there for a substantial fraction of our energy budget to come from biomass burning.
no one uses biomass energy
Biomass energy is widely used. One state that uses biomass is Oregon.
biomass energy is located everywhere on this planet!
Biomass is considered to be a relatively energy-efficient source of fuel because plants used for biomass absorb CO2 during their growth, creating a closed carbon cycle. However, the energy efficiency of biomass can vary depending on factors such as the type of biomass, processing methods, and transportation distances. Overall, properly managed biomass resources can be a sustainable and energy-efficient source of renewable energy.
I am so smart and i say it is efficient... If you object, come see my lawyer:p
The amount of energy produced by biomass can vary depending on the type of biomass and the conversion technology used. On average, biomass energy production can range from 1 to 10 watts per gram of biomass.
It is a biomass becauseit is burned for energy.
