What Does "Biomass Energy" Refer To?
Anytime you throw a log in your fireplace or cook a hotdog over a campfire, you're engaging biomass-fueled systems. Biomass refers to natural materials--from wood to corn to sugarcane -that can be used as fuel to power energy systems.
You may be asking yourself why current fuel sources like coal and petroleum aren't considered biomass, since they're found in nature. But because both of these materials are transformed by geological processes, they aren't considered biomass -and they are dwindling sources of energy that are not renewable.
As a home or business owner, the following are biomass-fueled systems that may work to help power your property:
- Wood, corn, and pellet heaters
- Compost Digesters
- Methane Collection
