The ‘Nexus’
• FOOD v FUEL v WATER
• Increasing demand…
• …whilst reducing GHG emissions!

Crop Emissions
Total Emissions, Tg CO2 eq/yr.(Carlson et al, 2016)
• Rice = world’s #1 food crop
• Demand due to increase by 70% in the next 30 yrs
• Responsible for 48% of ALLglobal crop emissions• Mostly from
straw and roots decaying in flooded soils

Three Main Rice Straw Options
1) Incorporate into Paddy
Field
Delays Establishment of Next Crop
2) Feed to Livestock
Poor Nutrition and Digestibility
3) Field Burning
Respiratory Illness
Reduced Productivity
GHG Emissions

Field Burning: 300,000,000 T/a

Phase 2: Set up Pilot Plant• “Rice Straw to Biogas (R2B) Project”
• 3 years, 2017-2020• Village-scale biogas plant, Philippines

1. Straw Collection
• Innovative and efficient straw collection system
• Plans to integrate rice harvesting, threshing and straw collection into a single operation

2. Mushroom Production• Straw used as growing
medium
• 15 day cycle, single flush of edible mushrooms, which are processed into “mushroom steaks”
• Mushroom enzymes partially break down the straw ready for next step…

3. Anaerobic Digestion
• Specially designed “Dry AD” technology to overcome challenges of rice rice straw anaerobic digestion
• Abundant, renewable biogas fuel• Combined Heat and Power• Powering machinery• Smoke-free cooking

4. Recycle Nutrients
• Fertiliser / compost produced after anaerobic digestion
• Expected to increase rice yields by 10-15%
• Farmers only repay at harvest
