How is electricity generated from biomass energy?

Biomass is converted into energy and then electricity by different processes. In these processes, biomass is directly combusted with oxygen in power plants, while in co-combustion, it is burned together with a fossil fuel. Various gases and vapors are formed by this process. The decomposition of organic substances by heating in an oxygen-free environment is […]
