Hydrothermal liquefaction utilizes moderate temperatures and pressures to convert a variety of feedstocks, include organic waste, into renewable bio-oil.<\/p>\n<p>Like fossil-derived crude, this bio-oil contains a mixture of fuel molecules and after processing and separations can produce gasoline, diesel, and jet fuels. And this technology has demonstrated that it is compatible with a variety of organic wastes such as municipal wastewater residues, food waste, manure, amongst others.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop included perspectives from around the globe-showcasing several high-profile pilot- and demonstration-scale projects that are expected to come online in the coming years. These include the Tofte, Norway, as well as facilities in Calgary and Vancouver, Canada. The workshop discussed a variety of technical barriers related to this technology including pre-processing and homogenization of these feedstocks, managing aqueous and gaseous streams, and quantifying the ecosystem services from this process, amongst others.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop also discussed the process for achieve fuel qualification for aviation fuels to ensure that aviation OEMs will be comfortable with the fuel performance associated with these fuels.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop hosts will be working to develop a roadmap to commercialization of this process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hydrothermal liquefaction can convert food waste, manure, or municipal waste wate residues into renewable bio-oil to be used as aviation fuel In November 2020, the Bioenergy Technologies Office, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Washington State University, and Commercial Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative hosted a workshop on production of sustainable aviation fuel using a technology known as [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":244,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/task36.ieabioenergy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6804"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/task36.ieabioenergy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/task36.ieabioenergy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/task36.ieabioenergy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/244"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/task36.ieabioenergy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6804"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/task36.ieabioenergy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6804\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6806,"href":"https:\/\/task36.ieabioenergy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6804\/revisions\/6806"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/task36.ieabioenergy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6804"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/task36.ieabioenergy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6804"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/task36.ieabioenergy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6804"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
