[Seminar] Utilization of Wood-Based Biomass as a Renewable Energy Source

JFE Engineering Corporation: Its Options and Preparedness for Frequent Biomass Fires

Our company will hold a seminar titled "Guidelines for the Utilization of Wood-Based Biomass as a Renewable Energy Source." Biomass has gained attention since the introduction of the FIT system, but recently, doubts about its carbon neutrality (renewability) have arisen from an LCA perspective, and it is gradually losing its status year by year. On the other hand, as long as steam utilization in thermal power generation and heat utilization does not disappear, biomass, which can achieve carbon recycling with extremely high efficiency, is still considered a valuable option for decarbonization. In this lecture, we will focus on wood-based biomass, introducing the diversity of inputs (types of wood) and outputs (forms of energy), and discuss a power plant simulation using fast-growing biomass as an example of sustainability. Finally, we will address the frequent biomass fires as a challenge and elaborate on what should be prepared from both the equipment and business perspectives. 【Seminar Details】 ■ Date and Time: May 21 (Tuesday) 13:30 - 15:30 (Doors open at 13:00) ■ Speaker: Mr. Takahiro Uchiumi, Director of the Planning Department, JFE Engineering Corporation *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
