Biofuels
Transportation Technologies - Other
Technology Description:
The complex structures of the biomass feed stocks are broken into useful fuel or chemical "building blocks" by intense thermal action achieved by very rapid heating and a short (fraction of a second) processing time. This process results in the division of the large molecules and their reformation. Rapid cooling then preserves the initial decomposition products and yields a liquid fuel product. The process is flexible in that the fuel properties can be tailored through variation of the processing parameters.
The pyrolysis process is applicable to many types of feed stocks:
- Wood and wood residues
- Sugar cane residuals (e.g. bagasse and cane trash)
- Straw and grasses
- Rice husks
- Palm, peanut and coconut shells
- Crude oils
- Heavy oils
- Asphalt and bitumen
- Heavy distillates from petroleum refining
- Tire crumb
- Waste paper and sludges
- Straw and grasses
- Waste paper
Products and Services:
In conjunction with Magellan's Industrial group, the biofuel is being developed for application to power their OGT2500 2.85 MW industrial package.
