1 Carbon storage in engineered wood products in landfills Presented by Fabiano Ximenes, NSW DPI, 2013
2 Talk Outline - Background to project - Landfills in Australia - Excavations - Experimental work - Implications to industry
3 Project background - Previous projects: long-term C storage in solid wood -Funding: FWPA / Laminex / DAFF 1) Long-term C storage in engineered wood products and paper from landfills; 2) Long-term C storage in engineered wood products and paper in anaerobic reactors in the laboratory
4 Why is it important? - Greenhouse credentials of wood products (Carbon trading) - Life Cycle Assessments - More accurate estimates of national greenhouse emissions
5 Landfill types Municipal solid waste landfills C&D landfills C&I landfills Bioereactor landfills
6 Landfills Past: shallow, no compaction, aerobic Sanitary landfills: s Engineered landfills: s Modern landfills: large, deep, compaction, anaerobic
7 Landfills
8 Wood waste disposal Current options: Recycle/reuse; landfill Wood waste to landfills in Australia: Mt / year; paper : 1.3 Mt / year Eventually most recycled products either decay or placed in landfills Alternative: Incineration for energy recovery (Europe model) *Fossil-fuel displacement benefits
9 Decomposition in landfills Decay of organics: 50:50 CO 2 and CH 4 Oxidation factor: 0.1 (default) probably higher Best-practice landfills: 75-90% CH 4 recovery Methane generation: 0-30 years
10 Decay of wood in landfills Wood is made up primarily of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin Wood type Cellulose (%) Hemicellulose (%) Lignin (%) Softwood Hardwood
11 Decay of wood in landfills Wood is made up primarily of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin Lignin is degraded under aerobic conditions
12 Wood degradation (Aerobic) Undegraded wood Bacterial attack Severe fungal attack From: MSc thesis: Preservation of wood using oxy-aluminium compounds. Ximenes 2000
13 Decay of wood in landfills Wood is made up primarily of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin Lignin is degraded under aerobic conditions If landfill is under anaerobic conditions, then lignin (and some of the cellulose and hemicellulose) will not degrade
14 Methodology - Excavations Identification of sites (worst case scenario) Site characterization Target products Chemical composition: Cellulose / Hemicellulose / Lignin / Ash Comparison with matching controls

60 Implications for Industry cont. - Demonstration of long-term carbon storage: carbon credits * Additional carbon revenue (additional carbon to trade) * Increasing value of thinnings / incentive for plantation expansion MORE $ FOR C
61 Implications for Industry - Use of engineered wood products has a significant beneficial GHG impact - Any of the current end-of-life options: Recycling Energy Landfill POSITIVE GHG OUTCOME
62 Implications for Industry - Improved outcomes in LCAs of engineered wood products - Improved outcomes in building rating schemes WOOD PRODUCTS MORE COMPETITIVE IN BUILDING RATING SCHEMES
63 Summary - Excavations of engineered wood products in a range of climatic zones: high C storage after up to 18 years - Laboratory reactors: no C loss under controlled, optimised, anaerobic decay conditions - Engineered wood products in Australia: longterm storage of C
64 Wang et al 2011 Aim: characterize the anaerobic biodegradability of major wood products in municipal waste in the USA Experimental set-up: 8 L bioreactors Carbon loss from solid wood: 0 7.8% Carbon loss from Particleboard, MDF and plywood: %
65 Current work - Consolidation of data from more recent excavations - Consolidation of data from experimental work in the US (paper products) and in Australia (paper products and composite wood products) - Bioreactor experiments with range of Australian solid wood types ongoing
