The carbon footprint is the result of an emissions calculation. It indicates the amount of greenhouse gases released by an activity, process or action. A carbon footprint can be specified for business or production processes of companies, for example.
In general, the process of gasification uses high heat and low oxygen to turn carbon-based fuel into energy. This process differs from standard combustion because it uses far less oxygen, and it relies on a series of stages to make the process happen.
Wood fuel is cost-effective. Wood pellets are composed of leftover wood material and are economically competitive with other fuels used for heating. Prices of wood pellets are often stable because they do not depend on exogenous factors such as fossil fuels.
