Energy From Vast Biomass 10, Wood Ethanol thru Gas • -->cont: •1FOREST : 1g Residual: Cellulosic Ethanol etc: ii- β Dilute Acid Hydrolysis: • Also Dilute Acid Hydrolysis produces enormous amount(20-35% of total production) of unutilized wet impure & somewhat SubCritical water altered lignin, still often discarded: accumulated 30million+ m3(Russian industrial waste bashing Western media mostly ignore just this massive lignin dumping & ethanol industry - to hide economically disruptive CO2 sequestrating Russian lignocellulosic fuel business?) • iii-Gasification + reforming + Fischer Tropsch can process whole wood fibre including lignin: (UPM-Kymmene+), Lower cost with steam gasification ◎(Woodland Biofuels+), Small scale rotary kiln use gasifying(Micro Energy Japan+), Likely world's first modern 10,000ton/yr level biomass feed commercialization in 2013, feedstock is mix of wood, plant, trash etc(KaidiHI.com ). iv-Pyroysis based: produces electrical power & heat while generates liquid fuel(BTG Bioliquids - Empyro BV, Fotum+), • Mega "test" facility(Karlsruhe bioliq), Largest operator in in this type with international locations(Ensyn Technologies). Also see Wet Pyrolysis at p98: 3c Hydrothermal Carbonization(HTC). v-Sub/SuperCritical water(SCW) element(higher temp than hydrolysis (ie Near Critical Water[NCW]), Can process whole wood fibre including lignin. All SCW related tech is marked ◎ in biomass section): ◎(Licella - Ignite Energy Resources, Steeper Energy, BTG World - BTG Biomass+), Steam Thermolysis ◎(Concord Blue), Well known majors participated but followed by project cancellation(Catchlight Energy[Chevron - Weyerhaeuser]): too low cost? 108 linkedin.com/in/newnatureparadigm -Ben Rusuisiak: Specialty Cleantech Analysis, Vancouver, Canada
