Abstract

- Pyrolysis produces bio-oil for further upgrading to electricity, (transportation) fuels and chemicals.
- Pyrolysis fits well into the existing fossil infrastructure (logistics and refining).
- Several demonstration units (1-5 ton/hours) considered.
- Multilevel research from chemistry of the cell wall to optimization of whole factory.
- Fermentation of pyrolytic sugars explores the interface between thermochemistry and biotechnology.
