Green coal and lubricant via hydrogen-free hydrothermal liquefaction of biomass [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsBiocrude derived from biomass via hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is a sustainable substitute for petroleum to obtain energy and biochemicals. Upgrading biocrude inevitably faces the trade-off between consuming large amounts of hydrogen via hydrotreating

Thermodynamic analysis of algal biocrude production [PDF]
Energy, 2012 Abstract Although algal biofuels possess great potential, profitable production is quite challenging. Much of this challenge is rooted in the thermodynamic constraints associated with producing fuels with high energy, low entropy, and high exergy from dispersed materials.
