The Application of Biochar in the EU: Challenges and Opportunities
Biochar application to agricultural soils is an interesting emerging technology with promising potential for long-term carbon storage, sustainable waste disposal, and soil fertility enhancement. Extensive information exists in the literature on the highly beneficial properties of biochar. Nevertheless, systematic application of biochar on European agricultural soils may have wide ranging policy...
متن کاملFINAL REPORT Solid Wood Product Opportunities from Short Rotation Hybrid Poplar Trees
Fast growing hybrid poplar trees are being plantation grown in the Pacific northwest of the United States and British Columbia for the production of chips for pulp. If allowed to grow somewhat longer (to a rotation age of 9-10 years) and achieve saw log size, the basal log(s) might be used to produce lumber for solid wood products with the remaining stem volume chipped. Solid wood product manuf...
متن کاملShort Rotation Woody Crops for Industrial Applications
Purpose-grown trees have the potential to be a significant portion of the bioenergy solution in the Southeastern United States. Trees are a biomass source with existing end-use markets and associated infrastructure and provide a “living inventory” with a variety of benefits over annually harvested energy crops. The economic feasibility of utilizing tree woody biomass is improved by increasing p...
متن کاملUsing Eucalypts in Manufacturing1
The eucalypts as a group are attractive because of their rapid growth. This results in very high yields on a volume basis and in combination with the comparatively high specific gravities, the yields of dry fiber can be truly impressive. Maximum yield of dry fiber is the logical goal when the anticipated use is for fuel, or as a chemical feedstock for processes such as destructive distil latio...
متن کاملEucalypts face increasing climate stress
Global climate change is already impacting species and ecosystems across the planet. Trees, although long-lived, are sensitive to changes in climate, including climate extremes. Shifts in tree species' distributions will influence biodiversity and ecosystem function at scales ranging from local to landscape; dry and hot regions will be especially vulnerable. The Australian continent has been es...
