This oral session looks at various process for hydrothermal carbonisation of mainly biomass residues and includes presentations on fuel quality when using sugar cane bagasse, a comparison of hydrothermal carbonisation and slow pyrolysis, and the influence of process parameters and time on nutrient transformation.
