Biomass is any organic matter-wood, crops, seaweed, animal wastes-that can be used as an energy source. ... All organic matter contains stored energy from the sun. During a process called photosynthesis, sunlight gives plants the energy they need to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and sugars.
That's because plants absorb energy from the sun through the process of photosynthesis. When biomass is burned, this stored energy is released as heat. Burning biomass releases carbon dioxide. ... Many different kinds of biomass, such as wood chips, corn, and some types of garbage, are used to produce electricity
