Efficient, Environmentally Conscious Conversion of Biomass to Sustainable Fuel and Chemicals
- 總結
- Researchers at Purdue University developed a process that uses methane to deoxygenate guaiacol, a model compound for upgrading pyrolysis bio-oils by deoxygenation. This process is both economical and feasible, overcoming the high cost of hydrogen gas used in conventional processes.

- *Abstract
-
- *Background
- Due to its instability, poor combustion performance, and low calorific value, bio-oil is generally upgraded by reducing oxygen content. Hydrodeoxygenation is one commonly used approach. Using hydrogen gas for deoxygenation is expensive given the high cost of production and transportation. A need exists for an efficient process of converting biomass to hydrocarbons using available resources.
