Biomass combustion can play a useful role in helping reduce reliance on fossil fuel energy in buildings. To achieve its potential value in energy-efficiency programs and green building initiatives, biomass combustion must continually address a range of technology, education, policy and regulatory challenges. This seminar describes efforts by the biomass industry to provide environmentally beneficial technology solutions for a range of building applications. Technology solutions and standards information focus on particulate emission control and sustainable supply practices.
