Abstract

This paper presents data regarding developments in the field of renewable energy sources based on lignocellulosic raw material, which can continuously provide a wide range of energy services. Data regarding reserves of nonhydrocarbon raw materials are presented: Russian forests represent 25% of the world timber reserves (perennial lignocellulosic materials), while fields and croplands represent 9% of the annual plants growing in the world. Processing of renewable lignocellulosic raw materials and biomass into fuel pellets and briquettes is capable of providing reliable supply of heating, electricity, and transport energy without green-house gas emissions and affecting the climate (in compliance with the Kyoto Protocol). The features of catalytic biomass gasification, which can be used to design the combined processes of biomass processing with simultaneous obtaining of fuel gas or synthesis gas, as well as nanoporous carbon materials, are discussed.
