it releases CO2, methane and nitrous oxide when creating and using biomass. Also, it reaquires large amounts of water, land and trees

How many watts of energy does biomass produce?

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.


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.


What is the difference between biomass energy and wind energy?

Both biomass and wind energy are natural sources of energy. Their differences are that biomass energy comes from waste materials whiles wind energy comes from the wind. Before energy can be produced from biomass, decomposition by micro-organisms must occur to produce biogas (energy), while for wind energy, the speed of the wind (energy of the wind) causes some turbine-like device to change mechanical energy to other forms of energy. Energy from biomass can also be obtained by burning it.


How is the energy from biomass released?

Energy from biomass is released through a process called combustion, where the biomass is burned to produce heat. This heat is then used to generate steam, which drives turbines to produce electricity. Biomass can also be converted into biofuels like ethanol through processes such as fermentation or chemical reactions to release energy.
