Biocrude Production from Hydrothermal Liquefaction of Chlorella: Thermodynamic Modelling and Reactor Design

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Hydrothermal liquefaction can directly and efficiently convert wet biomass into biocrude with a high heating value. We developed a continuous hydrothermal liquefaction model via Aspen Plus to explore the effects of moisture content of Chlorella, reaction

Hydrothermal Liquefaction of Microalgae for the Production of Biocrude and Value-added Chemicals

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2022
Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is a thermochemical process used to convert biomass with high moisture content, like lignocellulosic material and aquatic biomass, into biocrude and value-added chemicals. It occurs in water subcritical conditions.

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.

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.
