Biomass Basics
Cellulose and hemicelluloses, two of the three main components of the great bulk of biomass resources, are polymers of sugars and can be broken down to those component sugars for fermentation or other processing to ethanol and other valuable fuels and chemicals. Biomass includes all plant and plant-derived material — essentially all energy originally captured by photosynthesis. This means that biomass is a fully renewable resource and that its use for biomass-derived fuels, power, chemicals, materials, or other products essentially generates no net greenhouse gas. (You must consider any fossil-fuel use to grow, collect, and convert the biomass in a full life-cycle analysis, but the carbon dioxide released when biomass is burned is balanced by the carbon dioxide captured when the biomass is grown.) Its production and use will also generally be domestic, so it has substantial environmental, economic, and security benefits. Biomass is already making key contributions today. It has surpassed hydro-electric power as the largest domestic source of renewable energy. Biomass currently supplies over 3% of the U.S. total energy consumption — mostly through industrial heat and steam production by the pulp and paper industry and electrical generation with forest industry residues and municipal solid waste (MSW). Of growing importance are biomass-derived ethanol and biodiesel which provide the only renewable alternative liquid fuel for transportation, a sector that strongly relies on imported oil. Thermo chemical platform technology heats biomass with limited oxygen to gasify it to synthesis gas (a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen) or liquefy it to pyrolysis oil. Because combustion and catalytic conversion processes are a function of the interaction of the individual molecules of feedstock material with oxygen or a catalyst, respectively, work better with liquids and gases than with solids. Therefore, biomass converted to synthesis gas, pyrolysis oil, or hydrothermal liquid (from another thermo-chemical platform process) burns more efficiently than if it were in its original solid state. Or, instead of burning them, these biomass-derived gases or liquids can be catalytically converted to other valuable fuels, chemicals, or materials. |

What are Air Credits?
Air Credits can be earned by putting on new control devices, modifying the process, curtailing, or shutting down emission sources. Credits can be denominated in discrete pounds or tons, pounds per day, or pounds per season (e.g., ozone and non-ozone season). Once created, an air credit can be used, banked (stored) for later use or sale, or sold or leased immediately to another entity. Depending upon the trading program, the credit can be used to mitigate a single pound of emissions or emissions that occur over a day, a season, a year, a number of years, or into perpetuity. Many states also run Emissions Reduction Credits (ERC) programs which also award bankable credits. Renewable Energy Credits Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) are similar to Air Credits except that they are awarded based on the amount of electricity an organization generates from renewable energy sources which current legislation lists as wind, hydro, biomass and other renewable energies. In some states SSTP’s will fit the definition of a renewable energy source. RECs are measured in terms the electricity generated in MW Hrs where one credit equates to one MW Hr for one year. Organizations such as Cantor Environmental Brokerage ( CantorCO2e.com - REGISTER - Why My Cantor CO2e? - Market Data You Need to Know Before You Trade) Contact : Mike Hammond – 415-296-9575 operate as emissions credit brokerage houses. An excellent overview of the various programs is provided at Evolution Markets Emissions Reductions Credits Bankable tradable Emissions Reductions Credits (ERCs) are typically awarded at the state level when an organization voluntarily reduces its emissions allowance either by shutting down a facility, adding controls or switching to an alternate technology or fuel. For example, if a cement kiln currently using TDF were to switch to burning SSTP’s oil then it would be able to qualify for ERCs Evolution Markets There are other emissions credit programs such as Southern California NOx RECLAIM*Trading*Credits*(RTCs) Evolution Markets And Discrete Emission Reduction Markets (DERs) Evolution Markets How can SSTP maximize the benefits of these programs? The SSTP system derives fuel from cellulosic or other recycled wastes. This fuel can be used by sister companies or outside customers to generate electricity. Since the SSTP system produces no emissions it may be possible for the company to accumulate valuable Air Credits for its operations. Discussions with Phil Doyle of Econergy International Corporation (Econergy International Corporation ) 202-822-4980 have confirmed that this might well be a viable direction for SSTP. Current Air Credit and REC allocations are predominantly targeted at reduction of emissions at existing emissions producers (sources) rather than for new sources. Any power generated using SSTP oil is, by definition an alternate fuel operation. It may therefore be beneficial for SSTP to concentrate on assisting existing sources to reduce their emissions and participate in the emissions Air Credits and RECs so obtained. An analysis of the emissions credit trading market shows that availability of tradable credits is significantly reduced, thus following the law of supply and demand, the cost of these credits has increased dramatically over recent years as the table below for Nox credits shows. |

Government, State and World Programs for Harmful Emissions Reduction
Executive Summary Electricity is currently produced almost entirely from coal, non-renewable fossil fuels and nuclear power. Electricity generation is the most polluting of U.S. industries. It is responsible for about one-third of the nation’s carbon dioxide and is the main contributor to global warming. Electrical generation is also responsible for around 30 percent of the nation’s smog inducing nitrogen oxides, and about two-thirds of the nation’s sulfur dioxide, the main cause of acid rain and of fine particulate matter implicated in tens of thousands of deaths in the United States every year. 1 Recognizing the above, a plethora of grants, loans, tax credit and “cap-and-trade” programs exist at World, Federal and State level to assist organizations that recycle waste, generate or utilize renewable energy sources, or contribute to the reduction of harmful emissions into the atmosphere or aquifer. SSTP clearly qualifies in many of these areas, the most lucrative of which may be the Cap-and-Trade programs. “Cap-and-trade” programs The theory behind these programs is that emissions reduction can be cultivated and encouraged by putting a financial value on each pound of harmful material that is released into the atmosphere. Existing “sources” of emissions are allocated an ever reducing base-line of what they are permitted to emit, and must purchase “credits” on the open market if they wish to exceed these levels. If an organization is able to reduce its emissions below its established base line then it is awarded credits which it may sell either directly to another organization or through an agent or broker. Power generation companies and utilities must now balance the expenditure to reduce emissions by adding more modern controls and scrubbing processes with the expenditure for emissions credits. Should a utility wish to expand its power generation capabilities, it is forced to do so under the financial constraints that the emissions program puts on it. The programs also help to make emission free or “green” power more attractive and financially viable. Certification Cap & trade programs exist at World, Federal and State levels. A central ingredient of these programs is recognition of auditing and certification performed by the states themselves or by independent non-profit organizations such as Green-e (Welcome to Green-e!) and Environmental Resources Trust (http://www.ert.net). Dan Leiberman at Green-e says that Green-e does not yet certify*processes outside the basic wind, solar and biomass areas. Alden Hathaway, Director of the EcoPower program at Environmental Resources Trust says that his organization targets power generation with reduced carbon emissions. They have a minimum criteria of a 50% reduction in carbon and zero increase in Nitrous Oxide (Nox) and Sulpher Dioxide (Sox) in comparison with the emissions of the grid the power is displacing. Certification costs by ERT $20,000. |
