bullGasification Through gasification biomass is heated to convert solids into a synthesis gas which is burned in conventional boilers or used in turbines to produce electricity
bullPyrolysis Through pyrolysis biomass is heated and converted into a liquid which can be used to generate electricity or further converted into fuels or chemical intermediates
bullCombined Heat and Power (CHP) Combined heat and power (CHP) systems have system efficiencies as high as 60-80 and are an effective use of biomass which enables recovery of waste heat for use in heating or cooling
bullCo-fired Co-firing systems involve the mixing of biomass with fossil fuels in conventional power plants after some modification of the existing equipment
bullDirect-fired Most biopower plants use direct-fired systems which burn biomass directly to produce steam

bullGasification Through gasification biomass is heated to convert solids into a synthesis gas which is burned in conventional boilers or used in turbines to produce electricity
bullPyrolysis Through pyrolysis biomass is heated and converted into a liquid which can be used to generate electricity or further converted into fuels or chemical intermediates
bullCombined Heat and Power (CHP) Combined heat and power (CHP) systems have system efficiencies as high as 60-80 and are an effective use of biomass which enables recovery of waste heat for use in heating or cooling
bullCo-fired Co-firing systems involve the mixing of biomass with fossil fuels in conventional power plants after some modification of the existing equipment
bullDirect-fired Most biopower plants use direct-fired systems which burn biomass directly to produce steam

bullGasification Through gasification biomass is heated to convert solids into a synthesis gas which is burned in conventional boilers or used in turbines to produce electricity
bullPyrolysis Through pyrolysis biomass is heated and converted into a liquid which can be used to generate electricity or further converted into fuels or chemical intermediates
bullCombined Heat and Power (CHP) Combined heat and power (CHP) systems have system efficiencies as high as 60-80 and are an effective use of biomass which enables recovery of waste heat for use in heating or cooling
bullCo-fired Co-firing systems involve the mixing of biomass with fossil fuels in conventional power plants after some modification of the existing equipment
bullDirect-fired Most biopower plants use direct-fired systems which burn biomass directly to produce steam

bullGasification Through gasification biomass is heated to convert solids into a synthesis gas which is burned in conventional boilers or used in turbines to produce electricity
bullPyrolysis Through pyrolysis biomass is heated and converted into a liquid which can be used to generate electricity or further converted into fuels or chemical intermediates
bullCombined Heat and Power (CHP) Combined heat and power (CHP) systems have system efficiencies as high as 60-80 and are an effective use of biomass which enables recovery of waste heat for use in heating or cooling
bullCo-fired Co-firing systems involve the mixing of biomass with fossil fuels in conventional power plants after some modification of the existing equipment
bullDirect-fired Most biopower plants use direct-fired systems which burn biomass directly to produce steam

bullGasification Through gasification biomass is heated to convert solids into a synthesis gas which is burned in conventional boilers or used in turbines to produce electricity
bullPyrolysis Through pyrolysis biomass is heated and converted into a liquid which can be used to generate electricity or further converted into fuels or chemical intermediates
bullCombined Heat and Power (CHP) Combined heat and power (CHP) systems have system efficiencies as high as 60-80 and are an effective use of biomass which enables recovery of waste heat for use in heating or cooling
bullCo-fired Co-firing systems involve the mixing of biomass with fossil fuels in conventional power plants after some modification of the existing equipment
bullDirect-fired Most biopower plants use direct-fired systems which burn biomass directly to produce steam

bullGasification Through gasification biomass is heated to convert solids into a synthesis gas which is burned in conventional boilers or used in turbines to produce electricity
bullPyrolysis Through pyrolysis biomass is heated and converted into a liquid which can be used to generate electricity or further converted into fuels or chemical intermediates
bullCombined Heat and Power (CHP) Combined heat and power (CHP) systems have system efficiencies as high as 60-80 and are an effective use of biomass which enables recovery of waste heat for use in heating or cooling
bullCo-fired Co-firing systems involve the mixing of biomass with fossil fuels in conventional power plants after some modification of the existing equipment
bullDirect-fired Most biopower plants use direct-fired systems which burn biomass directly to produce steam

bullGasification Through gasification biomass is heated to convert solids into a synthesis gas which is burned in conventional boilers or used in turbines to produce electricity
bullPyrolysis Through pyrolysis biomass is heated and converted into a liquid which can be used to generate electricity or further converted into fuels or chemical intermediates
bullCombined Heat and Power (CHP) Combined heat and power (CHP) systems have system efficiencies as high as 60-80 and are an effective use of biomass which enables recovery of waste heat for use in heating or cooling
bullCo-fired Co-firing systems involve the mixing of biomass with fossil fuels in conventional power plants after some modification of the existing equipment
bullDirect-fired Most biopower plants use direct-fired systems which burn biomass directly to produce steam

bullGasification Through gasification biomass is heated to convert solids into a synthesis gas which is burned in conventional boilers or used in turbines to produce electricity
bullPyrolysis Through pyrolysis biomass is heated and converted into a liquid which can be used to generate electricity or further converted into fuels or chemical intermediates
bullCombined Heat and Power (CHP) Combined heat and power (CHP) systems have system efficiencies as high as 60-80 and are an effective use of biomass which enables recovery of waste heat for use in heating or cooling
bullCo-fired Co-firing systems involve the mixing of biomass with fossil fuels in conventional power plants after some modification of the existing equipment
bullDirect-fired Most biopower plants use direct-fired systems which burn biomass directly to produce steam

bullGasification Through gasification biomass is heated to convert solids into a synthesis gas which is burned in conventional boilers or used in turbines to produce electricity
bullPyrolysis Through pyrolysis biomass is heated and converted into a liquid which can be used to generate electricity or further converted into fuels or chemical intermediates
bullCombined Heat and Power (CHP) Combined heat and power (CHP) systems have system efficiencies as high as 60-80 and are an effective use of biomass which enables recovery of waste heat for use in heating or cooling
bullCo-fired Co-firing systems involve the mixing of biomass with fossil fuels in conventional power plants after some modification of the existing equipment
bullDirect-fired Most biopower plants use direct-fired systems which burn biomass directly to produce steam

bullGasification Through gasification biomass is heated to convert solids into a synthesis gas which is burned in conventional boilers or used in turbines to produce electricity
bullPyrolysis Through pyrolysis biomass is heated and converted into a liquid which can be used to generate electricity or further converted into fuels or chemical intermediates
bullCombined Heat and Power (CHP) Combined heat and power (CHP) systems have system efficiencies as high as 60-80 and are an effective use of biomass which enables recovery of waste heat for use in heating or cooling
bullCo-fired Co-firing systems involve the mixing of biomass with fossil fuels in conventional power plants after some modification of the existing equipment
bullDirect-fired Most biopower plants use direct-fired systems which burn biomass directly to produce steam
