21 Why woodchips? Many organic carbon sources have been trialed: Shredded newspaper Cardboard fibers Almond and walnut shells Barley straw Wheat straw Corn cobs Corn stover Date palm leaves Rice husks Pine bark Pine needles Mulch/compost/green waste Woody media: Low cost Physical, chemical, and biological properties Durability
22 What do bioreactors cost? Christianson et al., 2012 (Trans. ASABE) Average: $152.07/ac Christianson et al., 2013
23 What is the life? Life estimated at 10 to 20 years Stoichiometric estimates: 20 to >50 yrs Empirical evidence: Robertson et al., 2008: 15 yr septic treatment wall Long et al., 2011: 14 yr sawdust groundwater wall Moorman et al., 2010: 9 yr woodchip drainage wall Depth of woodchips Moorman et al.,
