Biomass

Biomass is an organic material derived from living or recently-living organisms. It is the most common alternative to traditional fossil fuels, and represents a renewable energy source. Biomass can be used to generate electricity, heat, and fuel through combustion, gasification, and pyrolysis. It is popular among environmentalists and energy producers as it is both a renewable and carbon-neutral resource. The utilization of biomass can alleviate the emissions of greenhouse gases and reduce the dependency on fossil fuels. Biomass is considered to be one of the most efficient and sustainable energies available.
