This lecture covers the thermochemical conversion of biomass, including combustion, gasification, and pyrolysis. It explores the biogenic CO2 cycle, biomass conversion routes, and the potential of bioenergy usage. The heating value of biomass, its comparison with other fuels, and the impact of biomass drying on energy production are discussed. The lecture also delves into torrefaction, energy density comparisons, and the role of biomass in combined heat and power systems. It highlights the importance of cogeneration using Organic Rankine Cycles and the emissions associated with biomass combustion.
