Biomass Resources
• Agricultural Residue
The total farming area of Bangladesh is around 90500 km², which is 61.3% of
the total region. The total arable land is 79700 km² which is 54% of the total
zone. Paddy straw, rice husks, wheat straw, coconut husk, and shell aced oil
tree, beans, vegetables, trees, jute, and sugar stick bagasse, etc. are the major
agrarian residues.
• Municipal Solid Waste
Rural populace waste produces just 0.15 kg for each capita every day, while
the urban populace creates 0.4 to 0.5 kg for each capita every day in
Bangladesh. MSW is created from various sources as 75 to 85% private, 11 to
22% business, 1 to 1.5% institutional, and 0.5 to 1.25% others.
• Forest Residue
A total of 2.52 million hectares territory which is almost 17.4 percent of the
landmass is timberlands. Bangladesh has five categorized zones that make up
its forest into: 1. Sundarban forest, 2. Chattogram hill tracts forest, 3.
Madhupur and Bhawal forests, 4. Sylhet forest, 5. Rangpur and Dinajpur
Forest.
• Animal Manure
Cows, goats, and sheep are the general source of animal manure in the nation.
Biomass energy production and power generation utilizing animal manure may
turn into a feasible energy and power demand settlement in rural areas of
Bangladesh.
Natural Oil
Bangladesh has struck its first oil, in two gas fields in the northeastern Sylhet
region, estimated at about 153 million barrels, in the two gas fields. The oil
found was light and low Sulphur quality. According to Petrobangla, the reserve
is enough to meet the country’s oil demand for two years.
Conclusion
When we talk about the economy of a developing country like Bangladesh then
we have to acknowledge it that mineral resource could be a great turning point.
Our manpower is a great substitute to natural resources. If we start to make a
good combination between our manpower and natural resources then we can
say that it will bring a great positive affect on our economy.
