Abstract
The integration of renewable energy sources in the final energy mix has become a narrative due to current environmental problems, such as global warming, air pollution, dependence on fossil fuels, and others. It is also known that the industry had a significant impact on the emergence, development, and maintenance of these problems. Accordingly, a large number of researchers have contributed to the field of application of renewable energy sources in industry. The diversity of renewable energy sources that can be used in industry is conditioned by the operating temperature, which in most cases reaches values of 1000 °C. One of the renewable energy sources that can achieve these operating temperatures is biomass. This paper provides an overview of the current technologies of biomass application in the cement industry, considers the possibilities of their application in the Republic of Serbia, and analyses the benefits that are achieved by them.Keywords
