Abstract

Experts on validation and verification of reporting on greenhouse gas emissions and uptake of Bauman Moscow State Technical University (National Research University) began to develop a climate project in 2022. A solid waste landfill Joint-stock Company «VTZ» was selected for the design. The purpose of the work is to create a concept of a climate project for the organization of a carbon farm and a technology for highly efficient sequestration of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in the arid climate of the steppe zone. The research was carried out on an area of about 5 hectares. Experimental sites with boundary markings were selected, as well as control sites for the baseline scenario, and a reconnaissance survey was conducted. The data of the complex analysis of the territory formed the basis of technological solutions for carbon farm models. We have chosen a type of carbon farm with a short crop rotation Short rotation woody crops (SRC) in order to improve plant growth in extreme growing conditions. The proposed concept includes the development of sustainable and environmentally friendly phytoremediation technology using woody plants, various planting densities, microbiological organisms, soil additives, the introduction of bacterial fertilizers, bio-coal, irrigation schemes, reducing waste storage costs, providing ecosystem services. Research will be carried out on the production of biomass, the promotion of the natural biogeochemical cycle, the restoration of biodiversity — habitats and species, the creation of a multi-year carbon pool. The implementation of the project will make it possible to develop scientifically sound principles for the creation of a carbon farm on landfills of solid industrial waste for increased sequestration of atmospheric carbon in the arid climate of the steppe zone.
