Biomass is a renewable source of energy derived from organic matter, such as plants, animals, and waste. It can be used to generate electricity, heat, and transportation fuels, as well as to produce chemicals, materials, and other products. Biomass is a promising alternative to fossil fuels, as it can reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other pollutants while providing a reliable source of energy. There are a number of different types of biomass, including wood and woody biomass, agricultural residues, animal waste, and organic municipal waste. Read on to learn more about biomass and its potential to reduce emissions and provide a sustainable source of energy.
