Abstract:
Ten years ago, the bioliq project was launched to demonstrate the production of synthetic biofuels from residual biomass and to provide a research platform. The bioliq process aims at the conversion of low grade residual biomass into synthetic fuels and chemicals. Central element of the bioliq project is the 2-5 MW pilot plant along the complete process chain: fast pyrolysis for pre-treatment of biomass to obtain an energy dense, liquid intermediate fuel, high pressure entrained flow gasification providing low methane syntheses gas free of tar, hot gas cleaning to separated sour gases and contaminants as well as methanol/dimethylether and subsequent following gasoline synthesis. After construction and commissioning of the individual process steps with partners from industry, first production of synthetic fuel was achieved in 2014. In addition to pilot plant operation for technology demonstration, a research and development network has been established as a scientific fundament for optimization, further development of the bioliq® process, and to explore new applications of the technologies and products involved.
