UK Waste Streams as Strategic Asset for Greenhouse Gas Removals
The Whitehead review, commissioned by Energy Security & Net Zero, highlights domestic waste as a key feedstock for carbon capture technologies.
Led by Dr. Alan Whitehead CBE, the independent review identifies substantial greenhouse gas removal potential across three pathways: waste-to-energy, anaerobic digestion, and biochar production.
...calling for transitional support to enable sector transitions to carbon capture technologies.
- Waste-to-energy with carbon capture and storage
- Anaerobic digestion
- Biochar production from waste feedstocks
The review aims to minimize the UK's reliance on imported biomass, positioning domestic waste streams as a strategic asset for achieving the UK's net zero targets.
Author's summary: UK waste streams can aid in greenhouse gas removal.
