  2. Wood-burning stove - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood-burning_stove

    A wood-burning stove (or wood burner or log burner in the UK) is a heating or cooking appliance capable of burning wood fuel, often called solid fuel, and wood-derived biomass fuel, such as sawdust bricks. Generally the appliance consists of a solid metal (usually cast iron or steel) closed firebox, often lined by fire brick, and one or more ...

  3. Gasification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasification

    Sustainable energy. Gasification is a process that converts biomass - or fossil fuel -based carbonaceous materials into gases, including as the largest fractions: nitrogen (N 2), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H 2), and carbon dioxide (CO 2). This is achieved by reacting the feedstock material at high temperatures (typically >700 °C), without ...

  4. Pyrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrolysis

    Pyrolysis is most commonly used in the treatment of organic materials. It is one of the processes involved in charring of the wood [2] or pyrolysis of biomass. In general, pyrolysis of organic substances produces volatile products and leaves char, a carbon-rich solid residue. Extreme pyrolysis, which leaves mostly carbon as the residue, is ...

  5. Biomass (energy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomass_(energy)

    Biomass (in the context of energy generation) is matter from recently living (but now dead) organisms which is used for bioenergy production. There are variations in how such biomass for energy is defined, e.g. only from plants, [8] or from plants and algae, [9] or from plants and animals.

    The tonne of oil equivalent (toe) is a unit of energy defined as the amount of energy released by burning one tonne of crude oil.It is approximately 42 gigajoules or 11.630 megawatt-hours, although as different crude oils have different calorific values, the exact value is defined by convention; several slightly different definitions exist.

  9. Cellulosic ethanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellulosic_ethanol

    Overview. Cellulosic ethanol is a type of biofuel produced from lignocellulose, a structural material that comprises much of the mass of plants and is composed mainly of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. Popular sources of lignocellulose include both agricultural waste products (e.g. corn stover or wood chips) and grasses like switchgrass ...
