The definition of biomass is used for any material associated with living things and that energy can be derived; in short, these are resources of energy. Examples of such materials are wood, waste products created by living beings, fuels, gases, and so on
Biomass Energy Resources from Waste
Spend which can be generated through different processes of day-to-day life may be put to good use if treated properly. If we look around, there was large amount of energy that goes unused. This energy can be smartly used and most of our needs can be fulfilled. There are numerous biomass energy advantages which need to be understood in order to make better usage of them.
Biomass Energy Resources from Agricultural Wastes
The different activities associated with agriculture leads to the production of several different waste materials. Biogas production is the better exemplory case of utilizing the biomass renewable energy. The spend such as cow dung, straw (which remains after harvesting the crops) as well as other wastes on the farm may be used for producing biogas. A biogas plant is roughly divided into an inlet, digester and outlet. The inlet/feeder is employed to dump the agricultural wastes. The digester processes these garbage, and gas is produced. Outlet collects the residue which remains after gas is extracted from the raw stuff. A dome shaped metal with a pipe is used for collecting the gas (methane). Since the gas is filled in the dome, it slowly rises above. A pipe can be used to produce the gas where it is needed.
Another such source of energy is sugarcane. This crop can serve to be one of the great biomass energy resources even after the juice is extracted from the sugarcane. The left-over pulp i. e. bagasse, that is obtained from sugar factories, can be used in power stations. This electricity can consequently be used for running the sugar factories. This activity might help in minimizing the expenses and thereby reducing the reliance on fossil fuels.
Obtaining Energy from Living Biomass
The techniques of burning biomass resources to obtain energy is among the crude and antiquated techniques. Destroying the living things / their by-products and then obtaining energy from the heat obtained by burning would only supply a limited amount of energy. Using livestock to convert mechanical power (of bullocks and such animals) to electricity through dynamos (fitted on wheels of carts) is one of the smart techniques. Many such smart methods can be devised.
