Robert Adams Roadside Park east of Charlevoix. The marker honors the achievements of the Big Rock Point nuclear plant and the significance of the area to the dawas. “Big Rock Point and its employees were pioneers in demonstrating that nuclear energy could safely and efficiently generate electricity” said Jackson L. Hanson Consumers Energy’s vice president of generation engineering and services. “The outstanding safety record and the research that was conducted at the plant help set the standard for the commercial nuclear power industry that was to follow. ” The plant set several industry records throughout its operating life from 1962… The marker honors the achievements of the Big Rock Point nuclear plant and the significance of the area to the dawas. “Big Rock Point and its employees were pioneers in demonstrating that nuclear energy could safely and efficiently generate electricity” said Jackson L.

America’s Emerging Bioeconomy

Department of Agriculture estimates. If they begin growing biomass crops such as switchgrass for the production of ethanol from plant fiber what would be the effects on the land and water Anex asks. Anex an Iowa State associate professor of agricultural and biosystems engineering and associate director of Iowa State’s ffice of Biorenewables Programs is examining the sustainability of a shift to an American agriculture that produces biomass for fuel as well as food and fiber. “It may well be that the development of biomass-based crops production systems can have as profound an impact on agriculture and its environmental footprint as it does on energy security and the global climate” Anex and co-authors wrote in a new paper published online by “Crop Science” the official publication of the Crop Science Society of America. “Whether this is a positive impact or a negative impact will depend largely on how biomass feedstocks are produced and converted and the extent to which these two activities are integrated wrote the team from Darthmouth College and Iowa State’s Agronomy Department. Their paper “Potential for Enhanced Nutrient Cycling through Coupling of Agricultural and Bioenergy Systems” reports that as much as 78 percent of the nitrogen fertilizer needed for crops could be recovered from an integrated biological and thermochemical process that converts switchgrass to ethanol. The study says such nutrient recovery and recycling could improve the sustainability of biomass production and the amount of energy required to produce ethanol from plant fiber… Their paper “Potential for Enhanced Nutrient Cycling through Coupling of Agricultural and Bioenergy Systems” reports that as much as 78 percent of the nitrogen fertilizer needed for crops could be recovered from an integrated biological and thermochemical process that converts switchgrass to ethanol. The study says such nutrient recovery and recycling could improve the sustainability of biomass production and the amount of energy required to produce ethanol from plant fiber. Plant fiber would be converted to liquid fuels by pre-treatments and fermentation the researchers say. The co-products of fermentation would be dried and heated to turn the solids into gases. The gasification would leave plant nutrients in the resulting ash and ammonia. The nutrients in both streams could be recovered and returned to the fields that produced the biomass. And that potential for nutrient recycling means there is potential for a new kind of agriculture feeding a sustainable bioeconomy.
