Biomass Energy Engineers develop and design systems to convert biomass into energy. Biomass is organic material from living or recently living organisms, such as wood, plants, and animal waste. Biomass energy is renewable, sustainable, and can be used to produce electricity, heat, and transportation fuels.
How to Become a Biomass Energy Engineer
Biomass Energy Engineers typically need a bachelor's degree in engineering, such as chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, or environmental engineering. Some employers may also accept candidates with a bachelor's degree in a related field, such as biology or chemistry, with additional coursework in engineering.
What Biomass Energy Engineers Do
Biomass Energy Engineers design and develop systems to convert biomass into energy. This may involve designing and building biomass power plants, developing new technologies for biomass conversion, or working with businesses and organizations to find ways to use biomass energy.
Biomass Energy Engineers may also work on research and development projects to improve the efficiency and sustainability of biomass energy systems.
