Life Cycle Perspective Carbon Dioxide Emission Characteristics of Pelletize and Torrefied Residual Wood co-firing in Coal-fired Power Plant

Short Introductive summary

In this study, we conducted the life cycle assessment of wood chips and residual wood for co-firing in the conventional 500MW coal-fired power plant. We compared the mitigation effects depending on materials (wood chip and residual wood), processes (pelletization and torrefaction), process temperature and co-firing ratio. From the harvesting of woods to transportation, processes and co-firing of biomass, the direct and indirect carbon oxide emissions were calculated with combustion theory and emission factors from commercial software.
