**Abstract**

Bioenergy Potential of Turkey's

Forest Sources, Biomass Energy

Conversion Methods, Products,

Forests have been an important bioenergy source for mankind through the long ages, and they will continue as biomass feedstock sources in the future. This study aims to investigate Turkey's forest source, biomass resource, fuel wood, and forest residue potential to discover the bioenergy potential of Turkey. How to convert this potential to energy was evaluated in terms of applications and products. Thus, the most common biomass conversion methods such as thermal processes, pyrolysis, gasification, and combustion, and biological processes, fermentation, anaerobic digestion, and biophotolysis processes, have been explained as biomass energy conversion methods. Besides, the products of biomass are explained by its energy application fields. Overall, the bioenergy potential of Turkey's forest sources and biomass energy conversion methods will be overviewed by this study. Thus, this study will be attracted attention to forests' biomass source the effects on economic,

Rapidly growing population and industrialization have increased the energy

Biomass is vegetative organisms that plants produce and store from organic matter using photosynthesis using solar energy. Bioenergy is used to define energy and energy-related products produced from biomass. Biomass is formed as a result of the combination of sunlight and carbon dioxide and water in the atmosphere with

request. It is very important that this increased energy requirement is from sustainable and environmentally friendly resources. At this point, biomass energy stands out with it being sustainable, environmentally friendly, and an inexhaustible resource that can be obtained anywhere. Especially in rural areas, it is becoming the most promising energy source due to its positive effects on socioeconomic
