Biocrude Upgrading with Tandem Catalysts Hydrothermal Liquefaction of Biomass Feedstocks [PDF]

Catalysis Today
This study investigates biocrude production via direct hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL-D) using three biomass types: lignocellulosic agro-industrial waste (noted as BCA), microalgae (third-generation biomass, MSCT), and underutilized defatted seed from ...

Hydrothermal liquefaction of Caulerpa sertularioides: Optimized biocrude production and characterization with pretreatment techniques [PDF]

Biomass & Bioenergy
Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is presented as an eco-friendly method for producing biocrude from algal biomass, specifically macroalgae, which are abundant resources but often overlooked for biofuel production. This research aimed to create sustainable

Harnessing Activated Sludge for the Treatment of Hydrothermal Liquefaction Wastewater: A Proof-of-Concept Study. [PDF]

Water Environ Res
Activated sludge cultivation for sewage sludge HTL wastewater treatment was optimized using high temperature incubation, nutrient supplementation, high dilution factor, and overliming pretreatment. Up to 91.2% sCOD removal was achieved, with kinetics analysis confirming enhanced degradation rates under treatment optimization.

Fractional distillation of hydrothermal liquefaction Biocrude [PDF]

, 2021
This thesis describes fractional distillation as an upgrading method for improving the quality of hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) biocrude as a green-based biofuel. Firstly, as a part of the biomass to fuel pathway, aqueous phase recycling in the HTL process increased the yield of biocrude production and reduced the nitrogen content.

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.
