Course objectives:
|
The subject "Bioenergetics" is focused on processes and technologies that enable the production and energetic usage of biomass. It represents direct ways of burning and gasification of biomass for production of heating and electric energy and further on it represents also direct ways of biochemical conversion of biomass (biogas, bio fuels, bio ethanol and so on) to energetic products and their usage. In the subject are also included principles of taking the decision for economical evaluation of the investments effectiveness in bioenergetics area.
