Our innovative Biomass Carbon Removal and Storage Plus Renewable Natural Gas (BiCRS+RNG) methodology leverages coal bed methane (CBM) reservoirs as natural bioreactors for the conversion of biomass into renewable natural gas (RNG) and the permanent sequestration of carbon dioxide (CO2).
Utilizing indigenous microorganisms, the injected biomass undergoes anaerobic digestion within the coal reservoirs, generating RNG that can be produced along with CO2 that is permanently sequestered and absorbed onto the coal surfaces.
This process ensures anet reduction of greenhouse gases (GHGs) while creating a viable source of renewable energy.
The methodology is rigorously designed to meet the highest standards of carbon accounting, as defined by ISO 14064-2:2019. It provides clear guidelines for project development on site selection, feedstock characterization, and the quantification of net carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and emissions reductions.
Our approach emphasizes the importance of permanence and additionality, ensuring that carbon is stored safely for over 100 years and that projects yield genuine environmental benefits beyond business-as-usual scenarios.
Detailed monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) protocols are included to guarantee transparency and accuracy throughout the project lifecycle.
This methodology offers a unique opportunity for partners to engage in cutting-edge carbon removal projects that not only contribute to net-zero goals but also produce valuable renewable natural gas.
