How biomass compares to conventional fuels

Thermal Coal

5500–6500 kcal/kgCO₂ 90–95 kg/GJAsh 10–25%S 0.4–3%

High calorific but far higher CO₂, ash, and sulfur burden

Lignite

2500–4000 kcal/kgCO₂ 95–100 kg/GJAsh 15–40%S 0.5–4%

Lower calorific value and highest pollutant load of all fuels

Biomass Pellets

4200–4500 kcal/kgCO₂ < 5 kg/GJ*Ash < 2%S < 0.1%

Near carbon-neutral on lifecycle basis — low ash, low sulfur, stable heat

* Sourced from agricultural residue, zero-waste pathway

Natural Gas

8500 kcal/kgCO₂ 55 kg/GJAsh 0%S < 0.01%

Cleanest fossil fuel but price-volatile and infrastructure-dependent
