Fuel pellets from biomass: The importance of the pelletizing pressure and its dependency on the processing conditions (2011, neutral): “Plant biomass is available in large quantities, and can be utilized for sustainable heat and power production, when used as fuel [1,2].”
Agricultural residue production and potentials for energy and materials services (2014, background): “[15] estimate potential expansion of agricultural land by 2050 in four scenarios to 729-3585 million ha; the latter including landless animal production and extensive use of irrigation.”
Biofuels : What a Biopact between North and South could achieve (2007, methodology): “Taking the broad view, Smeets et al. (2007) estimate that the bioenergy potential of the tropical South would amount by 2050 to 215EJ per year, under the mildest assumptions (e.g. no irrigation) and responsible and sustainable land use methods.”
Bioenergy from “surplus” land: environmental and socio-economic implications (2012, background): “Smeets et al. (2009) concluded that bioenergy chains based on pelleting of perennial grasses can result in GHG reductions compared with fossil fuel chains when annual cropping or grassland is replaced and net GHG reductions when natural vegetation is considered as the reference land use.”
Developments in international solid biofuel trade—An analysis of volumes, policies, and market factors (2012, neutral): “[74] Smeets E, Faaij A, Lewandowski IM.”
A reassessment of global bioenergy potential in 2050 (2015, background): “Some studies (Hoogwijk et al., 2005, 2009; Smeets et al., 2007) predict that yields of these crops will increase substantially by 2050, much as yields of cereals like maize have increased over the past 50 years.”
Second-Generation Biofuels: Economics and Policies (2010, background): “Important attributes include the relatively high yield potential, wide geographical distribution, and relatively low levels of input needed when compared to annual crops (Smeets et al 2007).”
Integrated assessment of biomass supply and demand in climate change mitigation scenarios (2019, background): “This means that when setting up policies to mitigate climate change through the use of biomass, bioenergy, and biochemicals, it is important to understand the interactions and tradeoffs within and between the energy and land systems (Dornburg et al., 2010; Hoogwijk et al., 2005; Slade et al., 2014; ”
