Swedish Television’s Scientific News about Biorecro
Swedish Television SVT Science published an article about Biorecro’s first BECCS facility with the title “the World’s First Negative Emissions”. In the article the BECCS technique is described and Biorecro’s CEO Henrik Karlsson is interviewed.
The first large-scale facility in the world is now in operation
4 of November, the storage of carbon dioxide in the world’s first full-scale BECCS project begins in Illinois, USA. The project is lead by Illinois State Geological Survey at the University of Illinois, and other than Biorecro, 47 different partners and advisors are participating in the project through the Midwest Geological Sequestration Consortium (MGSC). The […]
Biorecro finalist in the Virgin Earth Challenge
All of us at Biorecro are very excited to have been short-listed for the Virgin Earth Challenge this month! Swedish Biorecro is among around a dozen remaining groups that emerged from an extensive review process of over 2,600 submissions. Biorecro competes with a technology called BECCS (Bio-Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage). The technique builds […]

The IEA and UNIDO publishes roadmap on CCS including BECCS
The IEA and UNIDO published a new technology roadmap on Carbon Capture and Storage in Industrial Applications. It shows that carbon capture and storage (CCS) has the potential to reduce CO2 emissions from industrial applications by 4 gigatonnes in 2050. The roadmap stresses the importance of BECCS and the potential for negative emissions with this […]
