Abstract:
The objective of the presented experiments is the conversion of the biomass to a liquid, combustible, and light oil. The hydrothermal process studied uses a feed stream, consisting of an aqueous slurry of a biomass (yeast) and a second stream, consisting of water and the gaseous products of the gasification of an aqueous methanol solution at supercritical temperature. This stream contains hydrogen and has a temperature of around 600 °C. Heating of the feed stream occurs with mixing with this hot stream. Process pressure is higher than the critical pressure of water.
