The relative cost of biomass energy transport.

Logistics cost, the cost of moving feedstock or products, is a key component of the overall cost of recovering energy from biomass. In this study, we calculate for small- and large-project sizes, the relative cost of transportation by truck, rail, ship, and pipeline for three biomass feedstocks, by truck and pipeline for ethanol, and by transmission line for electrical power. Distance fixed cos...

Biomass With Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage In a Carbon Constrained World

This paper investigates the potential role of biomass electricity generation with geologic carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS). The sustainable coupling of biomass with CCS technologies would create net negative emissions, which could potentially offset emissions from other sectors where mitigation is more expensive. We find that the successful development and deployment of biomass power p...

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of an Integrated Biomass Gasification Combined Cycle (IBGCC) with CO2 removal

Basing on results of previous studies, the efficiency of a Brayton/Hirn combined cycle, fuelled with a clean syngas produced by means of biomass gasification and equipped with CO2 removal by chemical absorption, resulted 33.94%, considering also the separated CO2 compression process. The specific CO2 emission of the power plant was 178 kg/MWh. In comparison with values previously found for an I...
