THE BIOMASS USING FOR THE ENERGY NEEDS IN THE NORTHERN REGIONS OF UKRAINE
Journal Title: Biota. Human. Technology - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
As biomass is a by-product of agriculture, it is advisable to use it as an energy source. In Ukraine, economically viable biomass potential is estimated at 27 million tonnes / year. Attracting such potential for energy production can meet about 12–15 % of Ukraine's needs for primary energy. Purpose. To assess the potential of agricultural waste, including wheat straw and cornstalks, for the energy needs of the Chernihiv and Rivne regions. Methodology. The starting point for estimating the energy potential of primary agricultural waste is the statistics on the gross harvest of crops. The economic potential that best reflects the amount of biomass available for the energy needs has been investigated. The data were used for 5 years (2014–2018). Scientific novelty. The prospects of the biomass use in the northern regions have been analyzed, the potential of the agricultural waste use in growing cereals for the energy needs in the Chernihiv and Rivne regions has been assessed for the first time. Conclusions. The theoretical potential of wheat straw and corn stalks is adjusted with the minimum crop yields in the specific soi land climatic conditions of the study area. On the whole, there is a fairly steady upward trend in this potential as wheat and corn production increase. The economic potential of wheat straw and corn stalks for the energy needs (conservative) in the Chernihiv regionis 58.9 thousand tonnes (3.4%) of the total amount of fuel used in 2018 and 58.1 thousand tonnes (3.3%) of the total amount of fuel, respectively. The economic potential of wheat straw and corn stalks for the energy needs in the Rivne region is 31.73 thousand tonnes (1.71 %) of the total amount of fuel used in the region in 2018 and 37.61 thousand tonnes (2.03 %) of the total amount of fuel, respectively.
