Biomass & Bioenergy is an international journal publishing original research papers and short communications, review articles and case studies on biological resources, chemical and biological processes, and biomass products for new renewable sources of energy and materials. The scope of the journal extends to the environmental, management and economic aspects of biomass and bioenergy.Key areas covered by the journal: ? Biomass: sources, energy crop production processes, genetic improvements, composition. Please note that research on these biomass subjects must be linked directly to bioenergy generation. ? Biological Residues: residues/rests from agricultural production, forestry and plantations (palm, sugar etc), processing industries, and municipal sources (MSW). Papers on the use of biomass residues through innovative processes/technological novelty and/or consideration of feedstock/system sustainability (or unsustainability) are welcomed. However waste treatment processes and pollution control or mitigation which are only tangentially related to bioenergy are not in the scope of the journal, as they are more suited to publications in the environmental arena. Papers that describe conventional waste streams (ie well described in existing literature) that do not empirically address 'new' added value from the process are not suitable for submission to the journal. ? Bioenergy Processes: fermentations, thermochemical conversions, liquid and gaseous fuels, and petrochemical substitutes ? Bioenergy Utilization: direct combustion, gasification, electricity production, chemical processes, and by-product remediation ? Biomass and the Environment: carbon cycle, the net energy efficiency of bioenergy systems, assessment of sustainability, and biodiversity issues.The journal does not consider papers on the following subjects: ? Performance of fuel combustion in engines ? Technical aspects of first generation biofuels ? Soil science papers with no direct linking to bioenergy generation ? Isolation of yeast/bacterial strains ? Purely analytical biochemistry derived studies that have no direct linking to bioenergy generation

生物質能與生物能是一種國際性期刊，發表原始研究論文和簡短的通訊，綜述有關生物資源、化學和生物過程以及新可再生能源和材料的生物質能產品的文章和案例研究。該雜志的范圍擴展到生物量和生物能源的環境、管理和經濟方面。期刊涵蓋的主要領域：?生物量：來源、能源作物生產過程、遺傳改良、成分。請注意，對這些生物量課題的研究必須直接與生物能源的產生聯系在一起。?生物殘留物：來自農業生產、林業和種植園（棕櫚、糖等）、加工工業和市政來源（MSW）的殘留物/殘留物。歡迎通過創新工藝/技術新穎性和/或考慮原料/系統可持續性（或不可持續性）使用生物質殘留物的論文。然而，與生物能源無關的廢物處理過程和污染控制或緩解不在本雜志的范圍內，因為它們更適合于環境領域的出版物。描述傳統廢物流（即現有文獻中描述得很好）的論文不適合提交給期刊。?生物能源過程：發酵、熱化學轉化、液體和氣體燃料以及石化替代品。?生物能源利用：直接燃燒、氣化、發電、化學工藝和副產品修復。?生物量和環境：碳循環、生物能源系統的凈能源效率、可持續性評估和生物多樣性問題。期刊不考慮關于以下主題的論文：?發動機燃料燃燒性能?第一代生物燃料的技術方面?土壤科學論文與生物能源發電沒有直接聯系?分離酵母/細菌菌株?純分析性生物化學衍生研究，與生物能源產生沒有直接聯系。
