Biomass Briquette is a substitution for coal and charcoal. It is created when biomass is dried out. This is usually used in third world countries, where any other energy amount is short. They decrease the amount of carbon in the atmosphere that coal and charcoal would normally produce. This is a very useful energy. 7
