What? No, I was just showing those numbers to see if electro-swing might have a chance. I didn’t use AI at all. I’m just curious about biomass stuff, that’s why I was looking more into it. Nothing I wrote was AI-generated. I’m actually super interested in this topic. I’m really Sorry, Sir, if my writing sounds weird or whatever, but I didn’t use AI.
OK, in that case we can talk by DMs as well. Some LLMs tend to make formal and polite writing with somewhat awkward wording and can do a cursory web search to add more citations than you should expect someone to read, but maybe you’re a student in a country that also speaks something besides english.
Current biochar carbon removal costs range from $130-180/t-CO₂ according to recent studies
You shouldn’t just be looking at biochar; there are other approaches, like drying, adding CaCl2, etc. I’ve seen some lower estimates for biomass burial, eg $50/ton CO2 here. Burial where gas from decomposition won’t escape is another option, eg this paper.
My general advice to you would be to trust cost estimates in papers less. Professors will effectively lie to make their research seem more useful, and there are bad techno-economic analysis papers too. Judging the quality of such papers and learning what parts are trustworthy is just a skill you have to practice.
