Korean researchers found a way to turn wet coffee grounds into cleaner, faster biochar, skipping the energy-intensive drying ...

Scientists have demonstrated a new plasma-based process that converts wet coffee waste into high-performance ...

Sequestering biomass or the carbon captured via CCS in the production of energy is a leading contender for achieving carbon removal and net-zero emissions. The Fast Company Executive Board is a ...

A new study published in Biochar shows that the water naturally present in plant biomass is not merely a processing obstacle.

Sometimes specific crops and trees are grown just for biomass power. These are often referred to as energy farms. For many years, farmers have been growing switchgrass as a side crop for livestock ...

The ionoSolv process is one of the most promising technologies for biomass pretreatment in a biorefinery context. In order to evaluate the transition of the ionoSolv pretreatment of biomass from bench ...

Catalysis can contribute in many ways to achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Here, the opportunities arising through the interplay of biomass valorization and distributed production ...

The forest biomass industry — cutting forests to make wood pellets to be burned in power plants — will continue booming through 2030, says a new report. By then, pellets made in the U.S., Canada, EU ...

Plans to revive an old coal-fired power station using bioenergy are being considered in the Hunter region of New South Wales. Similar plans for the station have previously not gone ahead. As we ...

As California works to meet climate and air quality goals, a key to the transition will come from biomass, which is renewable organic material from plants and animals. New research from the University ...
