The role of BECCS in Germany: a key to sustainable and permanent CO2 removal?

Environmental Research Communications
BECCS (bioenergy with CO _2 capture and storage) combines CO _2 capture and storage with the use of bioenergy. This is a promising carbon dioxide removal method that can contribute to reaching national net-zero climate targets. In this study, we analyzed

Evaluating the use of biomass energy with carbon capture and storage in low emission scenarios

Environmental Research Letters, 2018
Biomass Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) is heavily relied upon in scenarios of future emissions that are consistent with limiting global mean temperature increase to 1.5 °C or 2 °C above pre-industrial. These temperature limits are defined

Challenges and enablers in fluidization technology

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Gas–solid fluidized beds provide excellent heat and mass transfer for high‐throughput operations from coating to catalytic conversion and underpin emerging low‐carbon technologies. Yet industrial reliability, scale‐up, and control lag scientific understanding, particularly as finer, stickier, and more variable feedstocks increasingly challenge

Cascading wood use into bioenergy with carbon capture and storage ensures continuous and enduring temperature reduction

Communications Earth & Environment
Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is a key component of pathways to net zero, yet potential interactions with forest carbon dynamics, cascading wood strategies, and progressive decarbonisation and CCS deployment are poorly represented in ...

Coordinating the Deployment of Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage

Science and Technology for Energy Transition, 2022
Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) is a negative emissions technology that allows the removal of CO2 from the atmosphere while producing energy or goods. This technology has been increasingly pictured as key to reaching the Paris Agreement

Multifactorial Screening for Fine‐Scale Selection of CCS Industrial Clusters and Hubs in Brazil

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Brazil moves toward implementing its decarbonization commitments, carbon capture and storage (CCS) hubs are emerging as a key pathway for large‐scale CO2 abatement in hard‐to‐abate sectors. This paper presents a multifactorial, data‐driven framework to screen and prioritize potential CCS industrial clusters and hubs across Brazilian regions,

Expert assessment concludes negative emissions scenarios may not deliver

Environmental Research Letters, 2016
Many integrated assessment models (IAMs) rely on the availability and extensive use of biomass energy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) to deliver emissions scenarios consistent with limiting climate change to below 2 °C average temperature rise ...

Expansion of the Brazilian Sugarcane Bioenergy System Promotes Greenhouse Emission Reductions and Sustainable Development Without Compromising Food Security

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing global demand for biofuels has raised concern about compromising food security. This study uses two independent economy‐wide models to evaluate the impact of expanding the Brazilian sugarcane bioenergy system on economic growth, social outcomes and food security.
