Towards Net Zero: Feedstock Analysis for Regional Bioenergy & Biochar Planning
Early in October I gave a presentation to the Towards Net Zero: On-Farm Renewables & Biochar Forum in Manjimup, Western Australia. The presentation focused on using land use data for planning regional bioenergy and biochar production from pyrolysis and addressed both supply side (feedstock) analysis and demand side (market) analysis. This article focuses on using land use data in feedstock analysis and estimating bioenergy and biochar production from pyrolysis. It will be of interest to those involved with resource recovery planning, bioenergy and biochar planning, facility planning, regional development and climate change adaptation.
Towards Zero Waste: Opportunities for Bio-based Fertilisers (Digestate & Biochar) in Mining, Forestry, Municipal, NRM and Landcare
30th March was Zero Waste day. This article describes opportunities for processing wastewater sludge into bio-based soil conditioners and fertilisers for potential use in mining, forestry, municipal, NRM and Landcare to facilitate place-based Circular Economies.
