POTENSI BIOMASSA NIPAH (Nypa fruticans Wurmb.) DI DESA LUBUK MUDA KECAMATAN SIAK KECIL KABUPATEN BENGKALIS
Abstract: Biomass is organic
material produced by photosynthetic process, either in the form of product or
effluent. Plants, trees, grass, potatoes, agricultural waste, forest waste,
excreta and cattle dung are examples of biomass. One of the potential biomass
