Biomass direct

Estimation methods for Amazonian forest biomass direct versus indirect methods... 

Electricity production from biomass (direct combustion or derived by biofuels) presents some advantages very low cost of the starting material with respect to fossil fuels, zero net CO2 emissions, security of supply and reduction of transport distances when electricity is produced close to the biomass production site. 

The most immediate effect of the above disturbances on the SOC pool is to modify the rate at which carbon is delivered to the soil, either by changing the rate at w hich carbon is sequestered by living biomass, or by diverting carbon sec[uestered by live biomass directly or indirectly back to the atmosphere. Disturbance can also modify the rate at which carbon is returned to the atmosphere by microbial respiration. 

Product Analyses. Product analysis in support of the process development research in biomass direct liquefaction began at the rudimentary level of determining solvent-soluble portions of the product. Analysis was soon extended to elemental analyses and proximate analyses, such as ash and moisture. Later, spectrometric analyses were performed followed by detailed chemical analyses used in conjunction with chromatographic separation techniques. 

Using plants as feedstock instead of petroleum or natural gas can potenhaUy reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emitted to the atmosphere. Globally, about 62 Gt of carbon is taken-up by plants annually via the photosynthesis process. Producing chemicals and industrial products form biomass directly reduces the associated carbon released during the produchon of fossil-based products. 

For a long time, attempts to inoculate conunercial biomasses directly into wine after alcoholic fermentation failed. Bacteria populations had difficulty adapting to the physicochemical conditions of wine. 

During biomass growth By the process of photosynthesis, biomass directly sequestrates biogenic carbon dioxide during growth. After accounting for all emissions across a whole system, a lowest of 50% carbon dioxide reduction is possible from biofuel...
