Product Description
While energy is essential for development, standard fossil fuels are often in short supply in countries where it is needed most. However, alternative fuel resources abound in the form of agricultural and municipal waste or "biomass." This report reviews the state of the art of biomass combustion and gassification systems, their advantages and disadvantages. It also encourages investment in use of these technologies to enable developing countries to better exploit their biomass resources and help close the gap between their energy requirements and their energy supply.

Reader Reviews
Not useful for the on the spot production of or viability of methane production. I was looking for something that would help with production methods and viability study for such for on site agriculture conversion to gas! This is just a viability study for large production facility's!
