Biomass energy is obtained from biomass sources consisting of plant and animal origin elements. Biomass refers to all organic matter existing in the biosphere, whether of plant or animal origin, and materials obtained through their natural or artificial transformations. Technological advances can significantly increase the efficiency of biomass energy production and use. Bioenergy production involves some environmental risks that need to be carefully considered and managed. In order to avoid some risks and not to endanger biodiversity, practices aimed at protecting the environment are used while producing bioenergy. In this article, we wanted to draw attention to the possible environmental effects of biomass production technologies. For this purpose, two different biomass production technologies that are still production test (Salihli and Turgutlu Biomass Power Plant) were examined. The usage areas of these Biomass Power Plants (BPPs) were examined and it was aimed to reduce the possible effects on the environment and to minimize the concerns of the society.
