Across
- 2. A group of complex carbohydrates found in plant cell walls, easily hydrolyzed into simple sugars for biofuel production.
- 7. The breakdown of organic materials in the absence of oxygen, often used to convert biomass into methane and other biogas for energy production.
Down
- 1. The specific material, such as forestry residues, energy crops, or agricultural waste, used for biomass energy production.
- 3. A complex organic polymer that provides structural support to plant cell walls and is a major component of biomass.
- 4. The thermochemical decomposition of biomass at high temperatures and in the absence of oxygen, resulting in the production of biochar, bio-oil, and gases.
- 5. Renewable energy derived from organic materials.
- 6. A fuel derived from biomass, such as bioethanol, biodiesel, or biogas, used for transportation and energy generation.
- 8. A complex carbohydrate found in the cell walls of plants, used as a major component of biomass.
