Conversion Of Contaminated Biomass In An Innovative Biorefinery Into High-Quality Energy Carriers

Short Introductive summary

The innovative biorefinery from the EU-funded project "Phy2Climate" with the overall goal of combining phytoremediation and biofuel production is the center of this conference contribution. The pilot biorefinery combines cutting edge biomass processing technologies to produce clean drop-in biofuels for road and shipping transport at TRL-5. Within the biorefinery, heavy metal contaminated biomass harvested from the project’s pilot sites is converted in a first step into gaseous-, liquid- and solid intermediate products using the thermo-catalytic reforming process. Subsequently, the intermediates are refined individually by means of standard but also innovative technologies, into high quality products which meet international standards. Biomass conversion and first intermediate upgrading results are presented.
