Biomass Feedstocks Characteristics
Wood Products, Forest Management, Conservation Education, Technology, and Issues
Bioenergy can be made from many different biomass feedstocks, or raw materials, ranging from trees and crops to yard and animal waste. Creating bioenergy begins with first acquiring the biomass, and then processing it for use in a bioenergy facility to produce heat and electricity (biopower) or liquid transportation fuels (biofuels). The biomass feedstocks available to create energy or transportation fuels, will be discussed.
