Greenhouse gas performance of biochemical biodiesel production from straw: soil organic carbon changes and time-dependent climate impact

Abstract Background Use of bio-based diesel is increasing in Europe. It is currently produced from oilseed crops, but can also be generated from lignocellulosic biomass such as straw. However, removing straw affects soil organic carbon (SOC), with potential consequences for the climate impact of the...
