Abstract
Agricultural biomass is a strategic resource to reduce the strong dependence and dominance of hydrocarbons
in the world energy matrix, unlike conventional fuels that cause serious impacts to the environment, agricultural
biomass allows the production of fuels such as biodiesel, bioethanol and SAF with reduced environmental impacts,
which is why its use to diversify the national energy matrix is assumed to be a sustainable management strategy
of the available resources.
The survey and characterization of agricultural biomass in the municipalities of Cacuso, Cangandala and
Kiwaba Nzoji in Malanje province and in the municipalities of Ambaca, Cambambe and Lucala in Cuanza-Norte
province allowed to obtain detailed knowledge of the distribution, composition and density of existing agricultural
biomass, fundamental data for the planning of environmental policies and sustainable use of agricultural resources
and energy diversification.
