Articles in Home | Biomass Title|Newest|Oldest Biomass Renewable sources of energy  By : clueless Biomass is macrobiotic matter prepared from plants and animals. Biomass includes stored energy from the sun. Plants absorb the sun's energy in a method called photosynthesis. The chemical energy in plants gets transferred on to the animals and people that eat them, all in a form of a big chain reaction biologically. Biomass is a renewable energy source since as we grow more trees and crops, more waste will always be there to renew. Some examples of biomass fuels are wood, crops, manure, and some garbage. What is Biomass Energy?  By : Altawell Despite huge increases in the price of crude oil during 2006 and 2007, as well as an increase in the coal prices, the production cost of various bio-energy fuels still do not match the production prices of fossil fuels, such as coal. This means that the present scenario for the commercially produced bio-fuel is still far from being realistic for the international market in general. What is Co-Firing?  By : Altawell There are a number of factors which can affect co-firing in one way or another. Some of these factors are purely technical, others are non-technical. Many of these challenges do not apply to fossil fuels, and that is what makes co-firing with biomass a more challenging area, trying to establish itself in a more competitive environment where a number of systems and fuels are being tested and marketed at the present time. Co-firing, therefore, will need more support and more time to smooth out its various problems before it can compete commercially with fossil fuels. Why Biomas?  By : Najib Altawell The name "Biomass" was invented in approximately 1975 to describe natural materials used as energy sources, and refers to organic matter which can be converted to energy. Biomass energy is the oldest source of energy in the human history, as it can be easily dated back to man's first fire.
