![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Nuclear carbonization and gasification of biomass for effective removal of atmospheric CO2 Nuclear carbonization and gasification of biomass for effective removal of atmospheric CO2](/preview/png/1741247.png)
By the process of carbonization of biomass a portion of carbon element in biomass is stabilized as solid carbon, and the remaining portion of carbon, which is the volatile product from carbonization, is converted by the subsequent gasification and conversion process to carbon-neutral synthetic fuels, which can replace the fossil derived fuels currently used.In these processes, nuclear energy can effectively be utilized for supplying energy, thus avoiding the CO2 emission from any biomass or fossil combustion. By utilizing nuclear energy, most of the carbons in biomass are converted to either stabilized solid carbon or carbon-neutral fuels.Thus, significant amount of CO2 can efficiently be removed from the atmosphere by processing a part of annual growth of biomass, which leads to the decrease of atmospheric CO2 concentration.
