Workshop „Assessment of environmental impacts from the production and use of biomethane“ Stefan Majer, Maik Budzinski
Kick-off BIOSURF, Vienna 27/02/2015
What are we going to do in BioSurf I
• The GHG reduction certification is an important topic within the BioSurf project. Within this topic we will address a number of issues:
1. How big are the potential emission savings from Biogas/Biomethane production and use?
Müller-Langer et al. Energy, Sustainability and Society 2014,
What are we going to do in BioSurf II
• The GHG reduction certification is an important topic within the BioSurf project. Within this topic we will address a number of issues:
2. What are the biggest drivers of emissions and what could be done to reduce them?

What are we going to do in BioSurf III
• The GHG reduction certification is an important topic within the BioSurf project. Within this topic we will address a number of issues:
3. Develop a set of simple and robust recommendations for a GHG calculation methodology suitable for biomethane.

Welcome to the workshop on environmental impact assessment
• What are your experiences with LCAs for Biogas/Biomethane production and use?
• What are the most interesting scoping questions from your point of view?
• biggest drivers, • env. impacts, • most preferable use of biomethane, • optimisation, • etc.
Questions for the Workshop I
• What are the most pressing issues and challenges with regards to GHG-calculations that should be addressed within the Biosurf project?
- methodology- data- ??
• What kind of products would be helpful for you? What do you expect?
- guidelines- focus on specific issues (manure, methane leakage,
reference syst., etc.)?
Questions for the Workshop II
• Anything else??

Data Methodology (acc. to EU RED)
- potential methane emission reduction due to processing of:
- allocation of by-products,
• organic waste, - credits for avoided emissions,
• agricultural by-products (incl. manure),
- emission factors,
- methane leakage, - etc.
- substitution of mineral fertiliser,
discussion of best available data and highlighting further need for research
recommendations for the adaptation of the RED GHG calculation methodology
