Biomass is a term used in several contexts: in the context ofecology it means living organisms,[1] and in the context ofbioenergy it means matter from recently living (but now dead) organisms. In the latter context, there are variations in how biomass is defined, e.g., only from plants,[2] from plants and algae,[3] from plants and animals.[4] The vast majority of biomass used for bioenergy does come from plants and fecal matter. Bioenergy is a type ofrenewable energy that the bioenergy industry claims has the potential to assist withclimate change mitigation.[5]

IUPAC definition

biomass: Material produced by the growth of microorganisms, plants or animals.[6]

Uses in different contexts

[edit]

Ecology

[edit]
  • Biomass (ecology), the mass of living biological organisms in a given area or ecosystem at a given time. This can be the biomass of particularspecies or the biomass of a particularcommunity orhabitat.

Energy

[edit]

Biotechnology

[edit]

Biomass is also used as a term for the mass ofmicroorganisms that are used to produce industrial products likeenzymes andmedicines.[citation needed]

Bioproducts

[edit]

Examples of emergingbioproducts or biobased products include biofuels, bioenergy,biochar, starch-based and cellulose-basedethanol, bio-based adhesives, biochemicals,[7][8]bioplastics, biogas/biomethane,[9][10][11] and hydrogen from biogas.[12][additional citation(s) needed]

Biological wastewater treatment

[edit]

Inbiological wastewater treatment processes, such as theactivated sludge process, the term "biomass" is used to denote the mass ofbacteria and othermicroorganisms that break down pollutants inwastewater.[13]: 243  The biomass forms part ofsewage sludge.
