How Biomass can be converted into useful energy


 * First the fuel has to be burned.
 * Next you heat the water to make steam.
 * Then the steam turns the turbine.
 * After that turbine turns the generator.
 * And finally the electrical power is made because of all these steps.

Advantages of biomass energy


 * It makes sense to use waste materials where we can.
 * The fuel tends to be cheap.
 * Less demand on fossil fuels.
 * Biomass can be found on every squaremeter of the earth
 * It makes use of unused land and provides jobs in communities.

Disadvantages of Biomass energy
 * Collecting or growing the fuel in sufficient quantities can be difficult.
 * We burn the biofuel so it makes green house gases just like fossil fuels do.
 * Some waste material are not available all year round.

Renewable or nonrenewable
 * Biomass is non-renewable because once we use the fuel it is gone forever.
