Common Products You Might Not Know Are Made From Biomass
Did you know that you encounter products made from biomass everyday? From fuel to personal care products, even nutritional supplements, biomass is everywhere. Products like these (and many more) are a vital part of our nation’s bioeconomy. Bioeconomy is defined as the addition of domestic, sustainable, abundant biomass to the… Read More
Could the Key to Wildfire Reduction Lie in Biomass?
Wildfires have claimed large swaths of the U.S. West Coast—and ample time in the news cycle as well. While climate change has been charged as a prime culprit, which has deep support, another factor may also contribute to wildfires’ widespread impact: forest mismanagement. Some are pointing to the biomass industry… Read More
Better Biomass Breakup Achieved Through Rocky Relationship Between Water and Solvent
Recently, scientists from the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, or ORNL, have used neutron scattering and supercomputing to better understand how an organic solvent and water work together, to break down biomass. This process creates a pathway to improving the production of renewable biofuels and bioproducts. Keep reading… Read More
Biomass Helps Accomplish Goal of Reduced Carbon Emissions
The Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency recently released a new study, concluding that biomass does, in fact, play “a significant role in a climate-neutral, circular economy.” The study is titled “Availability and Application Possibilities of Sustainable Biomass,” and draws upon 400 paper and 150 interviews. This study is the latest in… Read More
