Prospects for a Billion Ton Biomass Feedstock Supply

This site is a gateway to biomass research information developed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. They have an extensive program of biomass and bioenergy research. They have available a new PDF document entitled "Biomass as Feedstock for a Bioenergy and Bioproducts Industry: The Technical Feasibility of a Billion-Ton Annual Supply." It explores the potential for US biomass under 3 schemes: 1) current biomass available for energy 2) biomass potential with technical advances in growing existing crops 3) Biomass potential with technical advances and added cultivation of switchgrass and other crops suited to sustainable biomass production.
