What is the Biomass Energy?? Sustainable energy utilizing renewable natural resources originating from biomass (other than fossil resources like mineral oil, coal, and natural gas). Methane fermentation power generation for Electric Power Biomass Energy Biomass Pellet → Coal Alternative Bio Diesel Fuel (BDF) → Diesel Alternative Bio Ethanol Fuel (BEF) → Gasoline Alternative for Vehicle(Liquid Fuel) Biomass to Liquid (BTL) Biomass origin Dimethyl Ether (DME) / Methanol Direct Biomass Combustion Power Generation Mitsubishi Corporation All Right Reserved
Advantages of Biomass Energy • Contribution to GHG Emission ReductionZero count on CO2 emission; treated as Carbon Neutral※ as stipulated by United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)→ Eligible for CDM Projects, if it is used as substitutes for fossil fuel. • (2) Anti Air-PollutionReduction of SOX (Sulfur Free), SPM (Oxygen), etc. • (3) Energy portfolioLess dependency on the Middle East fossil fuel sources • (4) New Environmental IndustryCatch up with EU and US who are considered as the biomass energy advanced countries, in accordance with the “Biomass Nippon Integrated Strategy” • ※Carbon Neutral…CO2 occurred from burning of biomass doesn't influence on CO2 growth in LCA base, because CO2 is fixed by the photosynthesis of the plant which is the feedstock of biomass energy.
