Benefts of Biomass

Conventionally, wood fuel was the main source of energy. It was either
used directly or burnt to produce charcoal, which was then used in
heating. Other sources of energy included coal. As technology began to be
the centrepiece of everything, exploitation of other sources of energy such
as petroleum became more eminent. This gave rise to Power Plant
obili!ation and other factors such as power plant instrumentation "uality
control. Petroleum and coal are examples of fossil fuels that are believed
to be produced by remains of ancient plants and animals that were buried
and with time due to high pressure melted away. #ell, biomass fuel
constitutes any living thing such as plants and animals. Today, biomass is
believed to be one of the safest green energy today. This brings us to the
"uestion of what are the bene$ts or advantages of biomass.
%irst and foremost, biomass is eco&friendly fuel. This is a boost to the
current global concern whereby countries are encouraged to produce
green energy. 'iomass does not produce harmful carbons into the
atmosphere. This essentially ma(es biomass the most preferred green
energy in present times.
)econdly, given the existence of Power Plant Equipment Preservation
mechanisms that have been put in place to tap green energy, biomass
remains one of the easiest to produce green energy. It can be locally
produced at home using three methods namely combustion of living
matter, decomposition and heating. In fact, because of its ease of
production, many people across the world have embraced biomass as the
best alternative source of energy. In countries li(e *)A, biomass
contributes a signi$cant percentage of total energy produce to the
national grid system.
'eing a renewable source of energy ma(es biomass the cheapest green
energy today. Plants will always grow and dead animals will always be
decomposed to produce biomass. Ostensibly, this is what ma(es biomass
very popular and given the existence of power mobili!ation maintenance
strategies that have been put in place, it has even become easier to
reproduce biomass almost on a daily basis.
