Biomass and biological fuels

Abstract

The analysis of results obtained at national and international level on the utilization of renewable energy sources pointed out the opportunity of over-passing the energy crisis by the orientation of world economy to produce energy by the help of biomass. The high plant mass volume present in the world could compensate the relatively low output of light energy conversion through photosynthesis. The climatic conditions from Romania favourable to plant growing with high capacity of biomass multiplication, as well as farming by-product, animal dejections, domestic garbage, can ensure the biogas necessary to cover a great percentage of the energy necessary for animal breeding farms or heating dwellings.
