"A comprehensive #bioenergy accounting model with a multi-dimensional analysis was
developed in a new study based in #China by combining spatial, life-cycle, and multi-path analyses."
Summary in a 𧡠below β¬οΈ 1/6
Accordingly, "the #bioenergy production potential and #GHG emission reduction for each distinct type of #biomass feedstock through different conversion pathways were estimated in the study." 2/6
"The sum of all available organic waste (21.55EJ/yr) & energy plants on marginal land (11.77EJ/yr) in China produced 23.30EJ of #bioenergy & reduced 2535.32Mt CO2-eq emissions, accounting for 19.48% & 25.61% of Chinaβs T energy production & C emissions in 2020, respectively." 3/6
Furthermore, in this study, "life-cycle emission reductions were maximized by a mix of #bioenergy end uses based on #biomass properties, with an optimal 78.56% bioenergy allocation from biodiesel, densified solid biofuel, biohydrogen, and #biochar." 4/6
