Bridging the gap between phytoremediation solutions on growing energy crops on contaminated lands and clean biofuel production

Project description

DEENESFRITPL

Use of phytoremediation crops to generate biofuel

Phytoremediation involves the removal of contaminants from soil using plants. The EU-funded GOLD project will employ bioenergy crops to decontaminate the soil they are grown in and then use them as a source of biofuel. Consortium members will identify crops for phytoremediation and decontamination and convert the contaminated feedstock into clean biofuels through two different thermochemical-based routes: gasification and pyrolysis. In both routes, the main contamination constituents will be collected in a concentrated form: as a vitrified slag with low leachability produced during gasification and in the form of high-density biochar created during pyrolysis. Finally, selected value-chains for biofuel production and land decontamination will be modelled and analysed regarding cost, sustainability and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
