Biomass conversion to intermediate bioenergy carriers and sustainable biofuels

Sustainable Aviation and Marine Fuel from Fast Pyrolysis Bio-Oil

Short Introductive summary

This presentation will report on the production of drop-in biofuels obtained by the catalytic hydrotreatment of Fast Pyrolysis Bio Oil (FPBO). The results are based on experimental work in bench- and pilot scale, continuous flow hydrotreaters.

Presenter's biography

Dr. Bert van de Beld joined BTG Biomass Technology Group BV in 1995 and became director of technology in 2002. He received his PhD at Twente University in the Netherlands on air purification by catalytic oxidation in an adiabatic packed bed reactor with periodic flow reversal. He was scientific/technical coordinator of the FP-7 EMPYRO project in which the semi-commercial pyrolysis plant is built and operated. Currently, he is involved in projects on pyrolysis oil quality control and the use of the pyrolysis liquid in modified diesel engines. Furthermore he is the representative of the Netherlands in IEA task 34 - thermochemical conversion of biomass into liquid fuels.
