Not much possibility remains to increase use of mill residues of forest products, but much remains to be gained from use of logging residues

What will be an ideal response?


According to Table 23.3, mill residues are already being well-tapped for energy.
Roughly 60% of this resource is being used. With the exception of thinnings, residential
wood fuel, bagasse, and food-processing wastes, few other sources of biomass are so well
exploited. For logging residues, the number is under 30%. A more accurate sentence might
be "Compared to the opportunities for increasing biomass energy utilization from logging
residues, increases from mill residues are less likely to be found."
