Forms of Biomass:

• Energy crop – plants grown specifically for their energy
• Forest residues – byproducts of biomass used for the wood industry
• Urban wood waste – recycled wood and plant matter from construction sites, residential lawn trimmings
• Animal waste – burned as a solid or converted to a gas for heat and power
• Landfill gas – bacteria break down organic garbage and produce a natural gaseous byproduct
