Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of animal by-products: Influence of operating conditions [PDF]
Waste Management, 2019 Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of Animal By-Products (ABP) is a promising technology for their recycling and disposal. Different operating parameters have been studied to determine their influence on the process. Higher heating values of biocrudes ranging between 35 and 39 MJ/kg have been obtained showing a maximum yield of 61% at 225 °C.
