Description
Biomass, all of the Earth's living matter, is an enormous energy resource, and one that is being replenished continually. It can be converted to liquid fuel via ethanol or electricity via gas turbines, besides more conventional uses for heat and gas. The aim of this book is to provide an integrated framework for the research and application of science and engineering to the sustained production, transformation, utilization and impact of biomass energy. Coverage focuses on four main areas: biomass and bioenergy; bioenergy production and accounting; biomass conversion and end-use technologies; and an appraisal of the costs and benefits of biomass energy.
