“Biocrude” and “Biomethane” from Croton bonplandianum
Resources, Conservation and Recycling, 1988Croton bonplandianum, a latex bearing plant, rich in nitrogen phosphorous and potassium (N-P-K), and which grows wild, yields good quantities (12–30%) of “biocrude” defined in the text). This biocrude can be “hydrocracked” to petroleum oil. The seeds of this plant yield 39% oil which can be a diesel oil substitute. The spent residue after extraction of

Hydrothermal Liquefaction of an Animal Carcass for Biocrude Oil
Energy & Fuels, 2019This study investigated the optimum operating conditions on hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) for the production of biocrude oil from animal carcass. HTL experiments were carried out at various reaction temperatures (230−350 °C), residence times (10−80 min), solid concentrations (5−20 wt%), and pressures (15−30 MPa).

Survey of biocrude-producing plants from the southwest
Economic Botany, 1982One hundred ninety-five species of plants native to the southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico were surveyed for potential feedstocks for biocrude production in arid lands. Biocrude is the hydrocarbon and hydrocarbonlike chemical fraction of plants which may be extracted by organic solvents and upgraded to liquid fuels and chemical ...

Energy profitability analysis for microalgal biocrude production
Energy, 2013Abstract This work presents the results of a thorough EROEI (Energy Return on Energy Investment) analysis for biocrude production from microalgae processes. We have investigated different alternatives to maximize the energy recoveries of each process considered, which has been modeled and simulated by Aspen Plus™.

Biocrude from biomass: pyrolysis of cottonseed cake
Renewable Energy, 2001Abstract Fixed-bed pyrolysis experiments have been conducted on a sample of cottonseed cake to determine the possibility of being a potential source of renewable fuels and chemicals feedstocks, in two different reactors, namely a tubular and a Heinze retort.

RTP™ Biocrude: A Combustion / Emissions Review
1997The thermochemical conversion of solid biomass wastes to liquid fuels via fast pyrolysis is now firmly established with a number of research, pilot plant and commercial systems producing sufficient quantities for applied combustion tests. Biocrudes produced with Ensyn’s RTP™ technology have undergone characterization and combustion tests in flame ...

Liquid Fuels by Low-Severity Hydrotreating of Biocrude
1997Bio crude (fast pyrolysis oil from wood) was hydrotreated to minimize the negative aspects of this fuel. The instability of the oil was reduced by reaction of the most unstable functional groups. Concurrently, the oxygenated component of the oil was also reduced, resulting in an improved energy density.

Waste Sludge: Entirely Waste or a Sustainable Source of Biocrude? A Review
Applied Biochemistry and BiotechnologyBiomass-derived biocrude is gaining greater recognition from people in general as an alternative fuel source to traditional fossil fuels. Worldwide, a great deal of research is being done to develop fuels made from sustainable biomass in order to replace the current conventional energy sources.
