New Perspective -“Lowest Cost” Energy From
Vast Biomass 33, SCW, Wet Air Oxidation
• -->> cont; •
v-Sub-SuperCritical W.
:
UnConventional Liquefaction:
• SCW is re-surging quietly in mainstream Japan: eg sewage water sludge superheated
steam gasification(Meta Water, Chugoku Denryoku+), Also used for AD pretreatment
of solid or liquid waste(Gekkeikan+). Oil industry can benefit by SCW cracking:
previously impractical tars, low grade bitumen - oil sand - extra heavy crude oil
upgrading with possibly most effective EOR, or Refinery Residue
Upgrading/cracking/visbreaking with little to no coke remaining(Inhibit asphaltene
polymerization): ◎(JOGMEC+), Also drastically cut cost of Synthetic Crude Oil(SCO)
production(no diluent use) to enable low cost pipeline transportation of oilsand
(Syncrde+)
• Wet Air Oxidation is used for WasteWater treatment: regular municipal, industrial,
oil industry caustic water etc. Slightly different from & more "primitive" mechanics
than SubCritical water process by use of bubbling reactor to inject oxygen/air with
lower pressure than SubCritical water method, also generates slightly higher amount
of emission than SCW(still minimum), ◎(Veolia Water Athos, Bertrams ch, Wetox nz,
Merichem - Kenox+), Used as pretreatment ◎(Granit Technologies SA+), but note
many SCW oxidation(SCWO) process also injects oxygen.
