2. 1. Fast pyrolysis of biomass : primary products and reaction pathways

   Author : David Usino; Tobias Richards; Weihong Yang; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fast pyrolysis; Py-GC-MS FID; Primary reactions; Cellulose; Xylan; Lignin; Birch wood; Co-pyrolysis; Mahogany; Iroko; Palm kernel shell; Biomass blend; Biomass interaction; Pretreatment; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning;

   Abstract : Pyrolysis of biomass to produce liquid fuel and chemicals has been considered as an alternativeto fossil fuel because biomass has a lower environmental impact; moreover, it is renewable andcould be sustainable. However, the process of bio-oil production involves a series of complexchemical reactions which are dependent on the biomass feedstock and composition,temperature, heating rate as well as residence time.

4. 2. Entrained-Flow Gasification of Black Liquor and Pyrolysis Oil : Experimental and Equilibrium Modelling Studies of Catalytic Co-gasification

   Author : Yawer Jafri; Rikard Gebart; Martin Seemann; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Black liquor; pyrolysis oil; catalytic gasification; co-gasification; gasification; entrained-flow gasification; pilot-scale; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

   Abstract : The last couple of decades have seen entrained-flow gasification of black liquor (BL) undergo an incremental process of technical development as an alternative to combustion in a recovery boiler. The ability of the technology to combine chemical recovery with the production of clean syngas renders it a promising candidate for the transformation of chemical pulp mills into integrated forest biorefineries.

5. 3. Catalytic Steam Pyrolysis of Biomass for Production of Liquid Feedstock

   Author : Efthymios Kantarelis; Weihong Yang; Tobias Richards; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pyrolysis; Catalytic Cracking; Catalytic Upgrading; Biomass to Liquids; Bio-fuels; Πυρόλυση; Καταλυτική διάσπαση; Καταλυτική αναβάθμιση; Biomass to Liquids; Βιοκαύσιμα; Pyrolys; Katalytisk Krackning; Katalytisk uppgradering; Biomass to Liquids; biobränslen; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

   Abstract : The current societal needs for fuels and chemical commodities strongly depend on fossil resources. This dependence can lead to economic instabilities, political problems and insecurity of supplies. READ MORE

6. 4. Study of bio-oil and bio-char production from thermal and catalytic hydrotreatment of simulated pyrolysis oil under mild conditions

   Author : Elham Nejadmoghadam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stabilization; soluble solid; alumina-supported catalyst; insoluble solid char; simulated pyrolysis oil; catalytic hydrotreatment;

   Abstract : Pyrolysis oil derived from fast pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass is a promising alternative energy source used to produce renewable biofuels. However, the high reactivity of unsaturated oxygenated compounds in pyrolysis oil results in charring and deactivation of the catalyst under severe hydrotreatment conditions. READ MORE

7. 5. Towards a Sustainable Biomass and Waste Refinery Based on Pyrolysis Combined with a Pretreatment Process

   Author : Yuming Wen; Weihong Yang; Pär Jönsson; Tobias Richards; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pyrolysis; anaerobic digestion; hydrothermal carbonization; refinery; biomass; waste; kinetics; LCA; Energiteknik; Energy Technology; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Abstract : Some of the naturally accumulated biomass and the massive production of waste by human activities have caused serious environmental problems. The degradation of biomass and waste is one of the main greenhouse gasses (GHG) emission sources. READ MORE
