energy crop
Crops dedicated to production of energy. This category comprehends non-food, lignocellulosic crops, belonging to the 2nd generation feedstock. Species included are both herbaceous and woody: miscanthus...
India has quickly joined the ranks of major biofuel producer and consumer thanks to a set of coordinated policies, high-level political support, and an abundance of feedstocks. Over the next...
This final publication of the BIO4A project provides a summary of the main results obtained by the different research and demonstration components of BIO4A and their relevance for the current context of SAF deployment.
Using Landfill Sites and Marginal Lands for Socio-Economically Sustainable Biomass Production through Cultivation of Non-Food Energy Crops: An Analysis Focused on South Asia and Europe
Food security and energy transition are among the current major global environmental challenges. Although these issues individually are significant in their own right...
Analysis of actual land availability in the EU; trends in unused, abandoned and degraded (non-)agricultural land and use for energy and other non-food crops
Over recent decades two diverging trends in the use of agricultural land are apparent - intensification and specialisation on land with greater production potential and abandonment and degradation...
The paper is a brief Comment on the article of D.J. Connor, 2022 (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.agsy.2022.103404). Connor compares how much human-metabolizable energy (HME) could be produced in Swedish organic...
The distribution of crop and fodder production in organic and conventional farms is established for eight regions of Sweden.
Regional yield per ha (mass and metabolic energy) of grain and fodder crop...
This report presents an assessment of the state of the art of key technologies for heat and power from biomass, namely combustion, anaerobic digestion, as well as intermediate energy carriers produced by using...
Duckweeds are amongst the fastest growing of higher plants, making them attractive high-biomass targets for biofuel feedstock production. Their fronds have high rates...
