The mapping of greenhouse biomass residues potential and their usage for energy production potential in Antalya
Abstract
The objective of this study was determine to the amount of plant biomass residue and mapping to their energy potential which occur during the harvesting of tomato, pepper and eggplant in greenhouses in Antalya. Besides it was aimed to examining the usability of these residues for the purpose of energy production. In Antalya, tomato, pepper and eggplant grown in greenhouses provides 202.53 thousand tons of annual biomass residues. The total calorific value of these residues is 3.19 PJ. It was calculated that 13 combine heat and power (CHP) plant with 23 MW installed capacity can be established to obtain electrical energy from these residues. In addition, the CO2 emissions reduction of 92% could be achieved by using all of these residues.
