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. [10]

Torrefaction is a thermochemical treatment of biomass at 200 to 320 °C (392 to 608 °F). It is carried out under atmospheric pressure and in the absence of oxygen.During the torrefaction process, the water contained in the biomass as well as superfluous volatiles are released, and the biopolymers (cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin) partly decompose, giving off various types of volatiles.

Unlike most renewable sources, biomass (and hydropower) can supply stable base load power generation. [58] Biomass produces CO 2 emissions on combustion, and the issue of whether biomass is carbon neutral is contested. [59] Material directly combusted in cook stoves produces pollutants, leading to severe health and environmental consequences.
