In the context of using biomass, which of the following is/are the characteristic/characteristics of the sustainable production of biofuel?
1. Biomass as a fuel for power generation could meet all the primary energy requirements of the world by 2050
2. Biomass as a fuel for power generation does not necessarily disrupt food and forest resources
3. Biomass as a fuel for power generation could help in achieving negative emissions, given certain nascent technologies
Select the correct answer using the code given below:
(a) 1 and 2 only · (b) 3 only · (c) 2 and 3 only · (d) 1, 2 and 3
उत्तर और व्याख्या · explanation in English
Answer: (c) केवल 2 और 3
The passage sets a sustainable potential of 80 – 170 exajoules a year obtainable without disrupting food and forest resources, and notes that nascent biomass-based carbon capture and storage could give negative emissions. But even the high projection is only about a quarter of world primary energy, not all of it.
- ✗ 1. Even the high projection is 'almost a quarter of world primary energy in 2050'.
- ✓ 2. There is a 'maximum sustainable technical potential ... without disruption of food and forest resources'.
- ✓ 3. Some models rely on 'biomass-based carbon capture and storage, an unproven technology, to achieve negative emissions'.
Remember · Numbers in the passage are the test: 'almost a quarter' can never become 'all'.
