Biomass is whatever is living or has been alive in recent past. They are renewable energy source and all living organisms including the plants, animals, fungi, algae and bacteria are biomass. Items that were alive not long ago and today became either some services and products or wastes will also be included in the category of biomass. These specific things include the wood, degraded bodies and whole organisms by the microbial flora and some organic fuels. Biomass is regarded to be of two concerns. The more practical and commercial category of biomass is that linked to industry where by biomass is the source of energy production. One other, more specific, consideration of biomass is as an ecological term where it's thought to be how many all living organisms or a specific species in a given ecosystem or even a place. We will simply take the commercial definition of biomass under consideration because of it is more general and may be appreciated by a lay man and is particularly of wide interest to general public, as the other type would give us a call for scientific expertise because of its discourse.

Biomass often is different from the hydrocarbon energy sources as the later strictly uses the fossil fuels and the geologically transformed hydrocarbons, such as for instance, coal and petroleum oil. Since the environmental change has gained attention of the boffins and the governments the biomass energy sources have started initially to become favorites of the same against the environmentally hazardous coal and petroleum energy sources. Coal and petroleum result from the hydrocarbon sources and tend to be regarded as hazardous and dangerous to the environment because of their release of skin tightening and as a waste. And so the hydrocarbon sources are considered as not-biomass, for they've perhaps not been present in the geochemical cycle of the world since such a long time as to make their presence hazardous for the environment now. There's a normal amount of carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere, that's, 0. 038%. Due to the extensive use of the hydrocarbon energy sources since the beginning of the age of industrialization, the concentration of carbon has been greatly disturbed and is considered to be increased by 35%. This happened because the hydrocarbons are not renewable. Alternatively the biomass is just a renewable energy source that's burnt and its carbon is again fixed through the carbon cycle, rendering it a far more favorable choice when compared with the coal and petroleum sources.
