Pyrolysis for liquids production and upgrading
Lignocellulosic Biomass Conversion into Biochemicals Using Pyrolysis
Short Introductive summary
In the present work, which is encompassed inside the European project LIFE BIOREFFORMED, an innovative strategy to produce renewable value-added chemicals and biofuels is developed, using a semi-industrial torrefaction and pyrolysis plant to produce bio-oil, biochar and gas from lignocellulosic biomass. These intermediates are further processed and turned into biochemicals and bioproducts such as value-added chemicals: carboxylic acids, anhydrosugars, phenolics, phenolic resins, etc.
