The conversion into a bio-based economy in Sweden requires a broad range of initiatives. One of the challenges is that additional sources of biomass will be needed. High yield potential, low conversion and production costs are critical success factors for new raw material. Salix is an energy crop that could be an important component of the total biomass production since it has a very good energy balance compared to other agricultural crops. In the project innovative methods will be developed for plant breeding so new high yielding varieties could be produced. The combination of more efficient selection methods and an added value of the raw material through plant breeding for use as biofuel creates better conditions for Salix cultivation. The conversion processes of Salix biomass to biofuels is studied in a collaborative project so the entire value chain from variety development, cultivation at the farm and biofuel production in industry will be interesting business opportunities.
Sveriges omställning till en biobaserad ekonomi kräver en mängd olika insatser. En av utmaningarna är att det kommer att behövas fler källor för produktion av biomassa. Hög avkastningspotential, låga konverterings- och produktionskostnader kommer att vara kritiska framgångsfaktorer för nya råvaror. Salix är en energigröda som kan bli en viktig del i den totala biomassaproduktionen eftersom den har en mycket bra energibalans i jämförelse med andra grödor på jordbruksmark. I projektet kommer innovativa metoder för förädling att utvecklas så att nytt högavkastande material kan tas fram. Kombinationen av nya effektivare urvalsmetoder och ett ökat värde på råvaran genom växtförädling för biodrivmedel skapar bättre förutsättningar för salixodling. Ett pågående samarbetsprojekt studerar omvandlingsprocesserna av salixbiomassa till biodrivmedel så hela värdekedjan från sortutveckling, odling hos lantbrukaren och produktion av biodrivmedel i industrin skall bli intressanta affärsmöjligheter.

Just going to the bathroom is contributing to algae blooms and climate change. Sweden alone releases roughly 15400 tonnes of N and 240 tonnes of P into lakes, rivers and seas, through municipal wastewater (including after treatment). Urine contains 80% of the plant nutrients found in wastewater and …

Heat stress is expected to be of major concern in Swedish animal production systems in the future. The air temperatures in parts of Sweden are expected to correspond to today's temperatures in southern Europe, where livestock experience heat stress today. Excessive thermal load affects the welfare …

Conventional technology is virtually unable to measure complete GHG budgets of drained organic soils, which may provide misleading results. So, global estimates of GHG emissions are based on coarse assumptions that don’t take into account the complexity of agroecosystems. Better data are needed for …
