RENEWABLE RESOURCES
Renewable resources are replenishable natural resources. Solar, water, wind, and biomass are all examples.
Our group focused on biomass. We plan on burning our homemade biomass briquettes.
​
The press uses organic material and presses it together making a cylinder of the material.
You leave it out to dry for around two days.
After it dries, you can use the biomass briquettes as kindling.
