  1. 11. Biochar Production from Municipal Sewage Sludge via Pyrolysis - The Case of Gotland

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Lara-Patricia Brokmeier; [2022]
    Keywords : Biochar; Municipal Sewage Sludge; Pyrolysis; Carbon Sequestration; Heavy Metals; Gotland;

    Abstract : In order to keep global average temperature below 2°C it is necessary to accelerate climate change mitigation actions and reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. This can be achieved by carbon capture and storage methods such as the production of biochar. READ MORE

  3. 12. Comparative techno-economic analysis of BECCS and biochar in Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Energy and Technology
