Abstract
Forest biomass can be converted to energy by direct combustion, or by conversion to gaseous or liquid fuel before burning. Such fuel can be used domestically, for transportation, and by industries and public utilities. This paper reviews some basic wood fuel characteristics, the state of forest biomass fuel technology, and the results of some recent wood-for-fuel feasibility studies.Keywords
