BIOMASS

Biomass is the use of plants and other resources that can be grown, like wood, grass, residue from forestry, and farm crops. Energy is harnessed and produce electrical currents by burning biomasses. Biomass power is the second largest renewable source of energy. Biomasses have several other uses beyond electricity, making it one of the most dynamic energy sources. Biomasses can be used directly for heating, like wood burning. Also, liquid fuels that are produced in the burning of biomasses have different uses. The most common "biofuels" are ethanol, used in alcoholic drinks, and biodiesel, which can be used as an additive or substitute for car fuel.
