The worldwide reserves of oil are sufficient to supply energy and chemicals for only about another 40 years, causing widening concerns about rising oil prices. The use of biomass to produce energy is only one form of renewable energy that can be utilized to reduce the impact of energy production and use on the global environment.mehr

KlappentextThe worldwide reserves of oil are sufficient to supply energy and chemicals for only about another 40 years, causing widening concerns about rising oil prices. The use of biomass to produce energy is only one form of renewable energy that can be utilized to reduce the impact of energy production and use on the global environment.

ZusammenfassungGiven that humans must give up fossil fuels-the ecological equivalent of a self-destructive addiction-alternatives are urgently needed. This book covers state-of-the-art methods of biomass conversion that may go some way to plugging the energy gap.
