摘      要：Current large scale biomass energy production systems including cellulosic ethanol,gasification,and pyrolysis facilities face significant technical and economic *** with these large scale systems,small distributed biomass energy production systems(DBEPS)are believed to offer advantages including lower capital costs,lower feedstock costs,simplified transportation and logistics and higher returns for biomass *** compliant technologies are expected to make utilization of regional biomass supplies practical and economically viable in the *** paper presents arguments on the need and importance of DBEPS,available DBEPS options,and an economic scenario of DBEPS implementation on an average size farm in the US.
