 Bioenergy is entrenched in multifaceted ways in global biomass systems for food, fodder and fibre production and for forest crops as well as in wastes and residue management. Bioenergy plays a critical role in the livelihoods of billions of people in developing countries. Sources of bioenergy vary from both plant and animal sources. In principle, biomass serves as the primary source of bioenergyii. In developing countries and marginalized populations, traditional biomass is utilized for cooking purposes, heating and lighting. Charcoal for instance is becoming increasingly a secondary energy carrier in rural areas with the probability of generating productive chains. The incremental magnitude of traditional biomass use and the global primary energy supply from traditional biomass to the world’s industrial wood production is shown in Figure 1a. Nonetheless, the frequency and unsustainable use of this traditional biomass sources (wood, charcoal, residue from agriculture processes, and animal dung) through combustion generate serious negative impacts on health and living conditions .
-Figure 1b shows the types of biomass used for bioenergy. Intensification of bioenergy production implies refining land and water use management and this requires a more global productive increase in feedstock for food, fodder, fibre, forest products and energy; important improvements in technology adaptation; and an advanced understanding of related social, energy and environmental connections linked to bioenergy production and usage. Modern bioenergy uses high efficiency and convenient solids, liquids and gases as secondary energy movers to generate heat, electricity, combined heat and power (CHP), and also fuels for transport in various sectors. Gases resulting from biomass are primarily methane which is obtained through anaerobic digestion of agricultural residues and municipal solid waste treatment and used for generation of electricity, heat or both.<ref>Antonia V.
