Smarter ways to capture carbon dioxide-exploring alternatives for small to medium-scale carbon capture in Kraft pulp mills

Adrian Lefvert et al.

Summary: This study examines the potential for carbon capture from the calcination process in Kraft pulp mills, specifically exploring oxyfuel combustion and electric arc plasma calcination as two concepts for carbon capture. The results show that carbon capture with these technologies can be achieved with low additional energy demand. With the increasing production of sulphate pulp from Kraft pulp mills worldwide, there is significant potential for capturing CO2 from these alternative calcination technologies as part of a large-scale deployment of CCS and BECCS.

Tensions in the energy transition: Swedish and Finnish company perspectives on bioenergy with carbon capture and storage

Emily Rodriguez et al.

Summary: Sweden and Finland aim to achieve net negative greenhouse gas emissions before midcentury through the use of technologies such as bioenergy with carbon capture and storage. However, companies in these countries face challenges in realizing this technology due to uncertainties in long-term policies, climate change responsibilities, technical trade-offs, and consumer demands. Despite believing in the technical feasibility of carbon capture, companies seek government collaboration to prioritize bioenergy with carbon capture and storage as part of an energy transition.

Is carbon dioxide removal 'mitigation of climate change'?

Matthias Honegger et al.

Summary: CDR, often seen as separate from climate change mitigation, should be more integrated into climate governance discussions, emphasizing the importance of clear obligations and equitable distribution, prioritization of emissions reductions and careful removal paths, as well as considering sustainability and human rights issues.

Potential and challenges of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage as a carbon-negative energy source: A review

Alexandre Babin et al.

Summary: BECCS is gaining attention as a carbon-neutral energy source with potential for negative emissions, but faces challenges such as food security, land use, and water use. Active research and development, along with strong policy support, are crucial for successful implementation in time to meet climate goals.

Incentivising bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) responsibly: Comparing stakeholder policy preferences in the United Kingdom and Sweden

Rob Bellamy et al.

Summary: Based on a comparative study of stakeholders in the UK and Sweden, policymakers should recognize the necessity of developing new incentives and reforms in existing policy tools; consider the risk of mitigation deterrence in real-world contexts; use multiple incentive approaches that do not overly rely on carbon pricing or force a choice between specific technology or technology neutral policies; and pay attention to the diverse perspectives of stakeholders and the wider public to determine the success or failure of policy designs.

The BECCS Implementation Gap-A Swedish Case Study

Sabine Fuss et al.

Summary: The IPCC has evaluated various pathways to achieve the ambitious climate goals of the Paris Agreement, noting that delayed climate action will increasingly rely on Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR). Bioenergy combined with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) is identified as a key technology for achieving net-zero targets, but its implementation faces challenges and potentials, as seen in the case study of Sweden. Swift political and economic incentives are required to overcome barriers for BECCS deployment at a large scale.
