bioenergy. What is it bioenergy or biomass is one of
- 00:10 - 00:11
the oldest sources of energy.
- 00:12 - 00:14
Back in the old days, cave dwellers would create wood
- 00:15 - 00:17
fires to cook food and keep warm.
- 00:18 - 00:21
And from now on, we have managed to harness energy
- 00:21 - 00:23
from burning all sorts of organic materials.
- 00:27 - 00:27
How does it work?
- 00:28 - 00:31
There are ways of getting bioenergy from different sources.
- 00:32 - 00:34
The basic stuff stays the same, burn the source and
- 00:35 - 00:35
the energy will be produced.
- 00:36 - 00:38
The key is being able to store and harness it
- 00:39 - 00:42
in an effective way, utilizing these sources of energy provides
- 00:43 - 00:47
an effect efficient way to create electricity, avoiding the direct
- 00:47 - 00:55
carbon emissions produced by coal fired power plants, advantages of
- 00:55 - 01:00
bioenergy. First and foremost, sustainable biomass is renewable.
- 01:01 - 01:06
The fuel sources can be regrown or resupplied and as
- 01:06 - 01:09
long as efforts are made to maintain biomass resources, the
- 01:09 - 01:13
process can be relied on, relied upon as a sustainable
- 01:14 - 01:19
method of renewable energy production and as well as being
- 01:20 - 01:24
renewable, sustainable biomass production is carbon neutral, which means that
- 01:25 - 01:32
it doesn't release any extra carbon into the atmosphere and
- 01:32 - 01:33
just being facts.
- 01:34 - 01:36
The methane gas from cow manure can be used to
- 01:36 - 01:37
create energy.
- 01:38 - 01:41
Most of the gasoline sold in the United States contain
- 01:42 - 01:46
some ethanol, garbage is burned for energy as well.
- 01:47 - 01:51
Farmers create energy from animal manure using things called digesters,
- 01:52 - 01:55
the main ingredient needed for ethanol a.
- 01:55 - 02:02
Sugars, and this is my sketch of bioenergy.
