What is Biomass?
Biomass energy is energy produced from organic materials. These materials include wood, bagasse, crop residues, solid waste, animal wastes, sewage, and waste from food processing. Biomass is made up mainly of the elements carbon and hydrogen; technologies exist that free the energy from chemical compounds made up of these elements.
