Renewable energy from biomass surplus resource: potential of power generation from rice straw in Vietnam

Abstract Biomass, one of the renewable resources, is expected to play an important role in the world’s energy future. In Asia, rice straw is an abundant agricultural surplus because rice is one of the leading staple food crops in the region. Often, rice straw is burned directly in the field via unco...
