Abstract
⺠This paper assesses the environmental performance of wheat straw as an energy source. ⺠Coal and natural gas (NG) are selected as references for comparison with straw. ⺠Straw has a better performance than coal and NG in some midpoint impact categories. ⺠The single score results show that straw is better than coal but worse than NG. ⺠Potential improvements lie in reducing NOx emissions and increasing power output.
