Biochar Utilization in Poyang Lake Eco-Economic Zone: Chances and Difficulties

Abstract:

The Poyang Lake Eco-Economics Zone includes 38 counties where 25 relatively poor counties are close to the lake. The country has been helping those rural areas and enhancing farmers’ living standard for many years, however, due to the historical, geographical, climatic reasons, farmers’ living standards do not have significant improvement so far. In addition to government subsidy, another way to enhance farmers’ income is to encourage of bioenergy production in a form of biochar/pyrolysis. Biochar/pyrolysis is a feasible method to produce clean and renewable energy along with substantial environmental and economic benefits such as increase in farmer’s revenue. However, there are also difficulties in its application due to transportation, feedstock collection, and storage. However, there need further investigation to quantify the gains and losses of pyrolysis/biochar technology.
