Biomass is any recent plant or animal organic matter. Coal and oil fossil fuels are fossilised biomass. Biomass energy can be produced from plants, wood, residues (for example sawdust and bagasse, or sugar cane residue, after crushing) and animal wastes. During photosynthesis, solar energy and carbon dioxide are stored in plants. When biomass is burned carbon dioxide and energy are released, which is the reverse of photosynthesis.
