Specific kinds of biomass include animal manures, crop residues, woody energy crops, algae, agro-food wastes, fats, slaughter waste, and food waste. Biomass is the only renewable energy source that can be used to make liquid transportation fuels such as gasoline, jet, and diesel fuel\u2014in the near term. It can also be used to produce valuable chemicals for manufacturing, as well as power to supply the grid.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”4.\tWhat kinds of biofuel can be used to generate electricity?” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” open=”off”]<\/p>\n Three main areas of biomass energy use should be highlighted: direct combustion to produce heat and electricity (solid fuel: charcoal or molding fuel), producing combustible gaseous (gas fuel: hydrogen, syngas, and biogas, etc.), and production of synthetic liquid fuels (biodiesel, biooil, methanol, ethanol and vegetable oil, etc.), which are burned to produce heat and electricity<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”5.\tWhat is BASD doing to help the Egyptian bioeconomy?” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” open=”off”]<\/p>\n To reach a sustainable, circular Egyptian bioeconomy, BASD uses innovation and harnesses the power of bioscience and biotechnology to responsibly produce organic crops, cut down on waste and shift to bioenergy alternatives to fossil fuels, meeting the needs of a growing population while preserving our natural resources.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”6.\tCan we substitute the chemical fertilizer with the produced organic fertilizer? ” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” open=”off”]<\/p>\n Biofertilizers are living microbial inoculants that are added to the soil to improve the plant growth and can be used as an alternative source of chemical fertilizer.

The organic materials used to produce bioenergy are infinite, since our society consistently produces waste such as garbage, wood and manure. Bioenergy is carbon neutral. As a natural part of photosynthesis, bioenergy fuels only release the same amount of carbon into the atmosphere as was absorbed by plants in the course of their life cycle.<\/span><\/p>\n
