Har svenskt biokol ett hål att fylla

Abstract [sv]

Med målet att undersöka huruvida Sveriges planer för biodrivmedeltillverkning är tillräckligt väl underbyggd har denna uppsats fokuserat på att undersöka vad biokol är, hur det produceras och vilka egenskaper det besitter. Biokol och biodrivmedel har därefter jämförts och analyserats ur hållbara dimensioner, så som ekologiska, sociala och ekonomiska, med tillägget att fungera som bistånd. Trots goda karaktärsdrag hos biodrivmedel och en hög självförsörjningsgrad i Sverige så pekar resultaten av denna uppsats mot att Sverige snarast bör tillsätta en offentlig utredning med fokus på biokol och att denna utredning undersöker om produktion kan ske i samverkan med biodrivmedel. Biokol har visat sig inneha en oerhörd potential som jordförbättrare och avfallshanterare, vilket gynnar biståndsidén. Det är dessutom synnerligen potent som en motkraft mot global uppvärmning till följd av ökande atmosfäriskt koldioxid och dess tillverkning bidrar dessutom med goda egenskaper vad gäller energieffektivitet och synergisamverkan med aktörer som kräver uppvärmning.

Abstract [en]

With the aim to investigate whether Swedens plans for biofuel production is sufficiently substantiated, this paper has focused on researching what biochar is, how it is produced and what characteristics it possesses. Biochar and biofuel has then been compared and analysed from sustainable dimensions, such as ecological, social and economic, with the addition of the potential as aid. Despite the beneficial traits of biofuel, and a high level of self-sufficiency in Sweden, the results of this article points towards the recommendation that Sweden as soon as possible appoints an official investigation focusing on biochar, and that this investigation also concentrates on researching whether biochar can be produced in conjunction with biofuels. Biochar has proven to possess enormous potential as soil improvement and waste disposer, which benefits the idea of it working as foreign aid. It is also particularly potent as a counter to the rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide with it’s consequence of global warming. Its production contributes to great opportunities concerning energy efficiency and synergistic interaction with actors who requires a lot of heating.
