Background! Bio crude oil (BC) properties & applications! BC technologies! Experimental results! utlook 1

2 From Lignocelluloses to Energy & Chemicals Chemolysis (alkali, acids, steam, solvents, enzymes) LC Energy & Chemicals Thermolysis (pyrolysis, gasification) Biorefinery Concepts! General Use of lignocelluloses (LC): wood, residues (e.g. straw, bagasse) no competion with food restricted accessibility of biopolymers => pretreatment =>conversion! Classic approach limited feedstock selectivity (conditioning) (pretreatment necessary with pressure processes, e.g. organosolv, steam) separation & cleaning Use only after conversion or modification (degradation to monomers, functionalisation, polymerisation)! Thermochemical approach broad selection of raw LC materials (e.g. straw, bark, DDGS, shells, etc.) simple thermal treatment by fast-pyrolysis at atmospheric pressure decentral conversion - central refining (separation & cleaning) Direct or indirect use after modificationen 2

3 The Approach LC Materials omogenization thermo-chemical conversion by fast-pyrolysis into Bio-il + Coke Generation of Energy & Chemicals Fast Pyrolysis Principle! Fast chemical degradation due to rapid heating in the absence of oxygen! Process characteristics: Temperature 500 C Pressure 1 bar Particle size < 5 mm t vapours < 2 s!
