Hydrothermal Liquefaction of Pulp and Paper Mill Residues for Biocrude Production

Engineering Proceedings
The pulp and paper industry is one of the leading waste-generating industries globally. With the rich energy content of these wastes and many of these mills not paying attention/implementing efficient waste disposal methods, it has become imperative that

Multi-stage pretreatment of hydrothermal liquefaction biocrude oil as a precursor for sustainable aviation fuel production

Fuel Processing Technology
A major challenge for upgrading hydrothermal liquefaction biocrude into sustainable aviation fuel is the presence of inorganic material. Unlike commercial crude oil or biofuel from energy crops, excessive amounts of contaminants such as salt, water, and ...

Effects of the use of acetone as co-solvent on the financial viability of bio-crude production by hydrothermal liquefaction of CO2 captured by microalgae

Journal of CO2 Utilization
Hydrothermal Liquefaction (HTL) is a promising technology to produce biocrude from microalgal biomass that has captured gaseous CO2. However, several problems of this technology must still be solved to make it economically and technically feasible.
