Hybrid Approaches for Renewable Refineries - Synergies of Biomass-Based and Electricity-Based Processes
Short Introductive summary
In this paper examples for renewable refineries and their use cases will be presented. Moreover, also hybrids of using different renewable resources like in a approach using synergies of biomass and power-based technologies will be considered as they allow to increase potential benefits in terms of technology development and improvement as well as in terms of economic and environmental competitiveness. For integrated renewable refineries higher cascades of biomass use and efficient biomass processing is crucial. Moreover, there is a need of cross-sectoral optimisation and mobilisation strategies for individual resources (esp. wrt design of value cascades). Numerous new, innovative biorefinery concepts are under development, often also through iterative expansion of the product range at existing plants. In addition, biomass- and electricity-based technologies are with a number of untapped synergies. For that some examples like use cases will be introduced.
