Py-GC-MS Study on Catalytic Pyrolysis of Biocrude Obtained via HTL of Fruit Pomace

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Herein, we proposed new two-stage processing of blackcurrant pomace toward a value-added, hydrocarbon-rich biocrude fraction. The approach consisted of thermochemical liquefaction of a wet-type organic matter into liquid biocrude followed by its upgrade ...

Biomass-to-biocrude on a chip via hydrothermal liquefaction of algae [PDF]

open access: yesLab on a Chip, 2016
Hydrothermal liquefaction uses high temperatures and pressures to break organic compounds into smaller fractions, and is considered the most promising method to convert wet microalgae feedstock to biofuel. Here, we present a microfluidic screening platform to precisely control observe, and analyze this process at high temperature and pressure.

Use of Co-Solvents in Hydrothermal Liquefaction (HTL) of Microalgae

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
This study reviewed and summarized the literature regarding the use of alcohols during hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of algal biomass feedstocks. The use of both pure alcohols and alcohol-water co-solvents were considered.

MOLECULAR PATHWAY ANALYSIS OF BIOCRUDE FORMATION IN HYDROTHERMAL LIQUEFACTION

open access: yes, 2023
Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is a process utilized to convert high water content feedstocks into a usable biocrude oil at temperatures between 250 – 350 °C and pressures in excess of 100 bar. Despite HTL’s prevalence as a research topic since the turn

Solvothermal Liquefaction of Blackcurrant Pomace in the Water-Monohydroxy Alcohol Solvent System

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Wet organic wastes are especially troublesome in valorization. Therefore, innovative solutions are still in demand to make valorization feasible. In this study, we tested a new transformation route of a blackcurrant pomace as a high-moisture industrial ...

Biocrude suitability for petroleum refineries

open access: yes, 1988
Technologies are now being developed that could produce crude oil from biomass, making available an alternative fuel source as petroleum supplies dwindle and prices rise. If the existing infrastructure for transporting and refining petroleum could be used for biocrude, the transition from petroleum would be smoother and less costly.

Lignocellulosic materials. A promising hydrothermal route to biorefinery products

open access: yesNext Materials
Hydrothermal conversion (HTC) has emerged as a viable alternative to traditional crude oil. In this study, the hydrothermal liquefaction process of a hybrid herbaceous biomass species (Pennisetum sp) was investigated to understand the most appropriate ...

AI‐Driven Strategies for Automated Microalgae Production Systems: Enhancing Yield, Efficiency, and Commercial Viability

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2026.
Microalgal bioproduct production is constrained by high cultivation costs. Integrating automated photobioreactors, real‐time pH, light and temperature control, AI‐driven automation, and electronic data logging enables smart cultivation, reduces manual intervention, improves process efficiency, and supports cost‐effective, scalable microalgal bioproduct

Full characterization of compounds obtained from fractional distillation and upgrading of a HTL biocrude [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Biocrude from hydrothermal liquefaction of biomass provides a sustainable source from which to produce chemicals and fuels. However, just as for fossil crude, the chemical complexity of the biocrude impedes the characterization and hence identification ...
