New Perspective -“Lowest Cost” Energy From
Vast Biomass 22, Hydrothermal Carbonization
• -->> cont; •
:
Hydrothermal Carbonization(HTC):
• Smaller sized installation ◎ (Grenol GmbH, Oax-eco+), also option of making
hydrocarbon chemical ◎ (AVA-CO2), Wastewater focus as raw material ◎ (TerraNova
Energy, Aqua Enviro+), Slightly different Catalytic HydroThermal
Polymerization(lower temp & pressure, less CO2 & decarboxylation reaction) of
biomass which requires no binder for pelletization ◎ (PCS Biofuels). *( ◎ indicates
Sub/SuperCritical Water related tech).
• HTC installation level/Production capacity is much smaller than
Torrefaction(competing dry version of this process), particularly out of Europe. There
is a mainstream Dutch govn't backed movement of converting marshland fast
growing weed into fuel but progress being stopped since 2013:
TORWASH(Energieonderzoek Centrum Nederland: ECN).
•
SubCritical/SuperCritical water treatment(SCW)/Hydrothermal
Liquefaction/SuperHeated Steam: Can adjust parameter to gasify heavily or treat
non-liquefied portion for the second round process. High % liquefaction might
require certain mineral catalysis(usually recoverable).
