Críticas

'A very timely book ... an important milestone and tool in the acceptance of the importance of biomass as a fuel. It should be a standard reference for governments and development agencies for some time to come.' Reforesting Scotland, Spring/Summer 2007 'The Biomass Assessment Handbook...gives a good guide to how to assess this important energy resource. Like biomass itself, this book has been a long time in gestation, and draws on the expertise of a lot of people who have been active in the biomass field over the years...' Renew 'Something of a classic in the world of biomass since its initial publication in 2007, this useful handbook, which was issued as a paperback last year, has just been reprinted to meet demand... If you are involved in the bioenergy industry today, you may well have this book on your shelf already. If you dont, why not?' EnAgri Magazine

Reseña del editor

The increasing importance of biomass as a renewable energy source has lead to an acute need for reliable and detailed information on its assessment, consumption and supply. Responding to this need, and overcoming the lack of standardized measurement and accounting procedures, this handbook provides the reader with the skills to understand the biomass resource base, the tools to assess the resource, and explores the pros and cons of exploitation. Topics covered include assessment methods for woody and herbaceous biomass, biomass supply and consumption, remote sensing techniques as well as vital policy issues. International case studies, ranging from techniques for measuring tree volume to transporting biomass, help to illustrate step-by-step methods and are based on field work experience. Technical appendices offer a glossary of terms, energy units and other valuable resource data.
