Safety Aspects of the Renewable Sources of Materials and Energy – Biomass Processing

Article Preview

Abstract:

The anticipated increase in the demand for wooden biomass for the production of pellets requires focusing attention on the issue of safety and health protection at work as well as application of modern machinery to minimize the risk of injury or damage to health. Biomass gasification is a promising technology, which can contribute to develop future energy systems which are efficient, safe in design and operation as well as environmental friendly in order to increase the share of renewable energy for heating, electricity, transport fuels and higher applications. Biomass gasification is ready for commerce but today large-scale introduction is hampered by various reasons. Health and Safety issues are recognized as a major barrier in the deployment of this technology.
