Abstract

Omdannelse af affald til energi, især til højværdi transportbrændstoffer er af stigende interesse. Liquefaction processer kan omdanne proces kan omdanne en bred vifte af lignocellulose- og bioaffald til dråbeformet bio-råolie, som er kompatibel med den eksisterende olieinfrastruktur. Denne undersøgelse er dedikeret til at fremme vores forståelse af flydendegørelse processen. Specifikt har det til formål at in- at undersøge en HTL-biodestillation med en med en detaljeret analyse af dens frak-tioner. Desuden dykker den ned i en de-fysisk og kemisk karakterisering afterisering af bioråolie efter flydendegørelse for at evaluere og sammenligne egenskaberne egenskaber efter hver behandling gennem et andet sæt eksperimenter ved hjælp af mikro-batch reaktorer. Karakteriseringer karakteristika som Carbon,Hydrogen,Nitrogen,Oxygen, HHV og TAN måles. sikret. Derudover vil blandingspotentiale med råolie vil blive undersøgt undersøges yderligere.

Waste-to-energy conversion, especially to high-value transportation fuels is of rising interest. Liquefaction process can transform a wide range of lignocellulosic and biowastes into dropin bio-crude which is compatible with the existing petroleum infrastructure. This study is dedicated to advancing our understanding of the liquefaction process. Specifically, it aims to investigate an HTL biocrude distillation with a detailed analysis of its fractions. Moreover, it delves into a detailed physical and chemical characterization of bio-crude after liquefaction to evaluate and compare the properties after each treatment, through a different set of experiments using micro-batch reactors. Characterizations such as Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen,HHV, TAN are measured. Additionally, blending potential with petroleum crude oil will be investigated further
