Availability of Biomass and Potential of Nanotechnologies for Bioenergy Production in Jordan

Jordan’s energy situation is in a critical state of dependency, with the country relying heavily on imports to satisfy its ever-increasing requirements. Renewable more competitive and consistent source that can supply large proportion country’s demand. It environmentally friendly minimizes atmospheric pollutant emissions. Thus, bioenergy has potential be crucial alternative Jordan. Biomass principal bioenergy; it accounts for approximately 13% primary demand anticipated half total by 2050. Nanotechnology emerged as an important scientific research area numerous applications, including biofuels. This review summarizes application nanoparticles improve properties processes presents availability viability nanotechnology-supported production Jordan generates up 5.8 million tons biomass each year access abundant nonedible plant resources (such Jojoba, Handal, Jatropha). The theoretical waste residue available was also assessed; discovered 1.28 dry crop residues (vegetables, fruits, farming crops) could generate 6.8 PJ per biogas generated at rate 817 MCM/year
