Episode: OIES Podcast - Carbon Capture from the Waste to Energy Sector
Description: In this podcast, David Ledesma speaks to Hasan Muslemani and Mathieu Lucquiaud about their forthcoming research paper on the potential to generate negative emissions from European Waste-to-Energy (WtE) sector using carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology. The authors discuss the role that WtE can play in dealing with residual waste from municipal, commercial and industrial sources, and how CCS can play a role in mitigating respective emissions. Specifically, the authors point out that capturing CO2 from the biogenic content in waste has the potential to produce 'negative emissions' and proceed to describe a methodology for assessing overall negative emissions...
