Energy from Biological Processes. Volume III. Appendixes. Part A: Energy from Wood

摘要

This working paper was written for OTA to assist in preparation of the report, ENERGY FROM BIOLOGICAL PROCESSES. The purpose of the study is to inquire into the feasibility of fostering further substitution of wood for fossil fuels. It is the author's conclusion that there is a surplus of wood that could be used for fuel in substitution for fossil fuels, and, on a renewable basis, this supply could be very substantially increased if it were national policy to do so.
