1 The Pyrolysis-Bioenergy-Biochar Pathway to Carbon Negative Energy David Laird, Sotirios Archontoulis, Robert Brown, Mark Wright, Dermot Hayes Agronomy, Mechanical Engineering, Economics Iowa State University
2 Need for Carbon Negative Economy. IPCC Fifth Assessment report considered various Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) and their impact on atmospheric CO 2 concentrations and temperature change relative to base line. The only scenarios that keep global average temperature increases below 2 C require the net removal of CO 2 from the atmosphere by IPPC 2014 Synthesis Report;
3 Carbon- Negative Energy Pyrolysis-Bioenergy- Biochar Platform Market and indirect land use analysis: Assess global biochar impact on food, markets, & GHG emissions Technoeconomic and LCA analysis of pyrolysis plants Economic analysis of PBBP three case studies Use APSIM biochar module to predict crop yield, GHG, water quality response to biochar for three case studies Incubations: Rate constants for biochar-soil processes Build APSIM Biochar module Field studies: Validation & calibration of crop response to biochar Literature review
4 Agricultural Production System Simulator Why APSIM? APSIM has become one of the world s foremost farming systems model with over 3,000 licensed users across 100 countries Publications each year Data from Web of Science Citations each year Open source code Free to download Holzworth et al Environmental Modeling & Software 62:
