UEA abandons ambitious biomass scheme

2016-03-03 12:56:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Guardian: One of the UKs largest and most ambitious biomass schemes, built with a 1m government grant, has been quietly abandoned. The 10.5m plant was intended burn woodchip to power much of the University of East Anglia (UEA), which has been hailed for its environmental credentials. But a source inside the university said that the biomass unit has never run for more than 30 minutes, while students and staff told the Guardian that the plants wood storage area is now being used to store Christmas...

Identifying traits early in development could predict future biomass production in Miscanthus

2016-02-27 07:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

ScienceDaily: New genetic tools have identified links between early establishment traits and biomass yield in Miscanthus. This marker-assisted selection technique could save years of waiting for Miscanthus plants to establish and become mature. The technique can be used to reliably select higher-yielding plants earlier in the Miscanthus life cycle. The U.S. government has mandated a rise in domestic ethanol production from cellulosic bioenergy crops, spurring research to identify and improve high-yielding biomass...
