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.

∙ 12y agothey main source of biomass fuel is soybean's and rice.. The problem with this is they are destroying rain forests to be able to get the space to grow so its not environmentally friendly like they said it was...

∙ 13y agobiomass comes from a lot of things one is a plant

What forms of energy does biomass use?
Biomass means plant growth of various sorts, all plants use solar energy to grow through photosynthesis, and chemicals in the soil or applied as fertiliser. Biomass provides thermal energy, when it is used ie burned
Plants and trees grow nearly everywhere This is one of the advantages of energy?
biomass
How is the energy from biomass released?
Energy from biomass is released by combustion.
How much does biomass energy?
Biomass energy produces 3% of the worlds energy
The energy in biomass is used to make electricity how is the energy stored in biomass?
chemical bonds
Does biomass energy only come from plants?
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.
Are plants examples of biomass energy?
Yes
Is a renewable from energy that comes from plants?
Biomass
What is the renewable energy from harvesting plants for burning?
biomass
What are facts about biomass energy?
its is made by plants and animals matter
Is oil a biomass energy?
No, biomass is used to describe plants which have grown in the recent past and can produce energy when harvested. Oil is from plants that grew hundreds of millions of years ago and we describe that as fossilised matter.

Why is biomass considered a renewable resource?
Biomass is considered a renewable resource because the energy source will come from organic matter such as garbage or crop waste.
Where does biomass energy receive its energy?
Biomass get's its energy from burning things like trees and plants, it then stores the gas from burning the trees and plants and stores it in a large container called a Metabase, then the ashes from the plants and trees are put into a large bowl which is the put into the metabase with the gas, then the metabase is heated up very hot at about 200 degrees, it is here which is where the energy is made, from heating the gas and the ashes of the trees and plants the energy is made and this is all called Biomass. Hope this helps! :)
Where does biomassenergy come from?
With the exception of some bacteria (e.g. cyanobacteria), plants provide all life on Earth with food as they are the only organisms that can produce it. So to answer your question, biomass energy comes from plants.
Where does plants biomass come from?
it comes from the seed and it got it because the plant which layed the seed left some energy in it , and i got this question and i got 2 merits!
