Renewable oil international llc provided the life cycle cost of operating a 100 drytonday fast pyrolysis system using southern pine wood chips as feedstock. Fast pyrolysis product yields are typically 5070% biooil, 1030% biochar, and 1520% syngas by mass. Biomass conversion by pyrolysis technology springerlink. Biomass fast pyrolysis is of rapidly growing interest in europe as it is perceived to offer significant logistical and hence economic advantages over other thermal conversion processes. Biomass is a mixture of hemicellulose, cellulose, lignin and minor amounts of other organics which each pyrolyse or degrade at different rates and by different mechanisms and pathways.
The american business partner is biogas energy, richmond, ca. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Fast pyrolysis and related catalytic pyrolysis are of increasing interest as pathways to advanced biofuels that closely mimic traditional petroleum products. Biomass must first be dried and ground to download as pdf file.
According to the contract, the pyrolysis plant must produce at least 50,000 gallons about 190,000 l of biooil. The essential features of a fast pyrolysis process are. The amount of arable land, the biomass yield, the purchase price of the crop, the policy support, and the product yield of fast pyrolysis are identified as the most influential parameters. Fast pyrolysis can directly produce a liquid fuel from biomass which can be readily stored or transported. An overview of fast pyrolysis of biomass sciencedirect. Research has moved from empirical investigations to more fundamental studies of pyrolysis mechanisms. A technoeconomic analysis was performed for a 100 drytonday 90,719 kgday fast pyrolysis transportable plant.
