Description

Biomass is expected as renewable and carbon-neutral energy to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and CO2 emission. The useful representative biomasses in Japan are garbage and animal waste as wet-biomass, and unutilized wood such as logging residue. The energy of wet-biomass is recovered by methane fermentation, and woody biomass is utilized by combustion and gasification. However, in Japan, the utilizing business of biomass is very difficult because it is usually unprofitable. Therefore, economy and effectiveness of that are analyzed and discussed for practical use of biomass on the basis of the differences between successful and unsuccessful cases.
