Bio-energy With Carbon Capture and Storage - Application

Application

Source CO2 Source Sector
Electrical power plants Combustion of biomass or biofuel in steam or gas powered generators releases CO2 as a by-product Energy
Heat power plants Combustion of biofuel for heat generation releases CO2 as a by-product. Usually used for district heating Energy
Pulp and paper mills
  • CO2 produced in recovery boilers
  • CO2 produced in lime kilns
  • For gasification technologies, CO2 is produced during the gasification of black liquor and biomass such as the tree bark and woody.
  • Huge amounts of CO2 are also released by the combustion of syngas, a product of gasification, in the combined cycle process.
 Industry
Ethanol production Fermentation of biomass such as sugarcane, wheat or corn releases CO2 as a by-product Industry
Biogas production In the biogas upgrading process, CO2 is separated from the methane to produce a higher quality gas Industry

Famous quotes containing the word application:

    “The best political economy is the care and culture of men; for, in these crises, all are ruined except such as are proper individuals, capable of thought, and of new choice and the application of their talent to new labor.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear—not absence of fear. Except a creature be part coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave; it is merely a loose application of the word. Consider the flea!—incomparably the bravest of all the creatures of God, if ignorance of fear were courage.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “Preaching is the expression of the moral sentiment in application to the duties of life.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
