Abstract

Finding new clean sources to match the fast overgrow of energy consumption and its expected environmental pollution has become an inevitable need [1]. The solution will mainly be to increasingly befriend renewable energy sources. Narrowing the circle towards a more local setting, this study focuses on biomass olive solid waste as source of renewable energy in Lebanon.
