Operationalizing BioSSbD: A safe‐and‐sustainable‐by‐design framework for biorefineries

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biorefineries are central to the transition toward a circular bioeconomy; however, their increasing scale and technological heterogeneity, and the integration of biological, chemical, and thermochemical processes introduce complex challenges related to safety, sustainability, and operational reliability. Existing Safe‐and‐Sustainable‐by‐Design

The role of biomass in the renewable energy system [PDF]

, 2012
Europe is striving for zero carbon electricity production by 2050 in order to avoid dangerous climate change. To meet this target a large variety of options is being explored. Biomass is such an option and should be given serious consideration.

Biomass Co-Firing for Boilers Associated with Environmental Impacts

Energy Sources, 2005
This article is presented to discuss general combustion and emissions issues with biomass co-firing, as well as specific issues with particular biomass fuels, such as fouling. The tests of co-firing were carried out in a lab-scale bubbling fluidized bed combustor.

Mid‐Domain Effect and Wooded Habitat Shape Mediterranean Reptile Communities

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
Analyzing a large number of reptiles observed across protected areas in Central Italy, we tested whether the mid‐domain effect explains hump‐shaped richness–elevation patterns. Species richness was best predicted by the combined influence of geometric constraints and woodland cover, revealing two contrasting species clusters and offering a robust ...

Dual-fuel combustion in a tangential PC-fired boiler of type OP-230 – computational simulations

E3S Web of Conferences, 2018
Syngas co-firing in coal fired boilers can be one of the prospective technologies which may help to retrofit some of still functioning older boilers. This study focuses on the results of CFD simulations of wood biomass-derived syngas co-firing with coal ...

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Techno-Economic Evaluation of Rice Husk Co-Firing as a Sustainable Biomass Fuel Alternative

ITEGAM-JETIA
Co-firing is a technology that blends coal with biomass at a specific ratio in steam power plants. In the Lontar area, which is surrounded by vast rice fields, there is significant potential to utilize rice husk waste as a biomass feedstock.
