Bioenergy Solutions

Bioenergy is renewable energy stored in organic materials such as plant matter and animal waste, known as biomass. The wide variety of biomass fuel sources includes agricultural residue, pulp/paper mill residue, urban wood waste, forest residue, energy crops, landfills and animal waste. Anaerobic digestion is the process that occurs when bacteria decompose organic materials in the absence of oxygen to generate biogas.

Biogas is primarily composed of methane and carbon dioxide with smaller amounts of hydrogen sulparkeride and ammonia. Trace amounts of other gases like hydrogen, nitrogen or carbon monoxide are also present in the biogas. Usually the mixed gas is saturated with water vapour and may contain dust particles.
