Description

Panmanas Sirisomboon and co-authors review a light-based method to predict emissions from burning plant material in a 2026 article. Burning biomass releases carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, which warm the planet. Measuring those gases usually means burning samples or using satellite data and standard formulas.

Near-infrared spectroscopy reads how light shakes the bonds in a sample, without destroying it. The review explains how those readings connect to heat value and likely emissions, with worked examples for sugarcane waste and other fuels. It compares the method with direct burning tests, drone and satellite measures, and guideline formulas. The authors conclude the method can estimate emissions and warming potential from intact samples, offering a fast warning tool for risky fuels.
