RECENT ADVANCES IN BIOHASS TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

Abstract The concept that blomass represents a source of liquid fuel and of different raw materials has led to the development of various research programmes In this field. Our Investigations in this direction are based on the following premises: (1) all kinds of blomass incorporate almost the same components, (2) energy from conventional forestry (forest energy) and from energy plantations (energy forestry), (3) energy from wood powder as an upgraded wood fuel, (4) the macromolecular compounds existing in the blomass Incorporate biosynthesis energy, and their conversion to useful products, (5) oils by liquefaction of blomass with different catalytic and noncatalytic processes, and (6) by conversion of blomass to solid, liquid, and gaseous fuels by pyrolysis and gasification.
