Title: A comprehensive state-of-technology review for upgrading bio-oil to renewable or blended hydrocarbon fuels

Abstract

Bioenergy sources are being advanced as a meaningful environmental solution and a substitute for conventional energy sources. Bioenergy from biomass feedstocks currently comprises the largest portion of renewables in the United States. Thus, more effective process-level solutions can result in scaling-up biomass-derived energy production (e.g., biofuels). Pyrolysis, a thermochemical conversion technology, offers a commercially viable pathway to produce bio-oil from a wide range of biomass feedstocks (e.g., algae and terrestrial). Bio-oil requires further upgrading for producing final bio-products (e.g., transportation fuels and biochemicals). This article focuses on upgrading bio-oil to transportation fuels (liquid hydrocarbons), highlights the critical challenges of existing upgrading technologies, and identifies the potential research directions to meet the market needs. A comprehensive overview and classification of bio-oil upgrading pathways and their competencies are presented through both comparative and systematic literature reviews. It is concluded that the biofuel production cost is highly dependent on post-conversion pathways, particularly their hydrogenation and deoxygenation capacity. Thermochemical treatments are effective, but less cost-competitive due to the intensive process requirements (e.g., heat or pressure). Physicochemical treatments are less effective, however, they operate under mild process conditions and could be integrated with other treatments. Biochemical treatments are inadequate as a standalone process for upgradingmore »« less

Overview and technology opportunities for thermochemically-produced bio-blendstocks

Journal Article Struhs, Ethan ; Mirkouei, Amin ; Ramirez-Corredores, Maria Magdalena ; ... - Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering (Online)

Global demand for transportation fuels is projected to increase 40% by 2040, and biomass-derived fuels (biofuels) play a crucial role in substituting fossil fuels and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. Currently, biofuels are mainly consumed as blendstocks combined with petroleum-based fuels, and effective conversion technologies can address the quality challenges for offering standalone biofuels. Thermochemical conversion process is one of the most promising pathways among existing technologies for biofuel production. However, the major barriers are unwanted characteristics (e.g., thermal instability) of intermediate products, such as bio-oil, and required upgrading treatments for producing compatible fuels. Here, this study highlights the merits andmore »« less

Mild Biomass Liquefaction Process for Economic Production of Stabilized Refinery-Ready Bio-oil

Technical Report Gangwal, Santosh ; Meng, Jiajia ; McCabe, Kevin ; ...

Southern Research (SR) in cooperation with U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Bioenergy Technology Office (BETO), investigated a biomass liquefaction process for economic production of stabilized refinery-ready bio-oil. The project was awarded by DOE under a Funding Opportunity Announcement (DE-FOA-0000686) for Bio-oil Stabilization and Commoditization that intended to evaluate the feasibility of using bio-oil as a potential feedstock in an existing petroleum refinery. SR investigated Topic Area 1 of the FOA at Technology Readiness Level 2-3 to develop thermochemical liquefaction technologies for producing a bio-oil feedstock from high-impact biomass that can be utilized within a petroleum refinery. Bio-oil obtained from fastmore »« less

Biomass Feedstocks for Renewable Fuel Production: A review of the impacts of feedstock and pretreatment on the yield and product distribution of fast pyrolysis bio-oils and vapors

Journal Article Carpenter, Daniel ; Czernik, Stefan ; Jablonski, Whitney ; ... - Green Chemistry

Renewable transportation fuels from biomass have the potential to substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions and diversify global fuel supplies. Thermal conversion by fast pyrolysis converts up to 75% of the starting plant material (and its energy content) to a bio-oil intermediate suitable for upgrading to motor fuel. Woody biomass, by far the most widely-used and researched material, is generally preferred in thermochemical processes due to its low ash content and high quality bio-oil produced. However, the availability and cost of biomass resources, e.g. forest residues, agricultural residues, or dedicated energy crops, vary greatly by region and will be key determinatesmore »« less

Catalytic Upgrading of Thermochemical Intermediates to Hydrocarbons (Final Report)

Technical Report Dayton, David C.

A lot of activity in catalytic pyrolysis and hydroprocessing occurred in the past 10-15 years with notable successes and failures; however, very little technical information is available in the open literature from pilot-scale studies such as those performed in this project. Besides, the next step along the technology commercialization pathway is to scale-up the catalytic biomass pyrolysis process, integrate this technology with a hydroprocessing unit, and demonstrate the long-term operation and performance of the integrated process; notably, these were achieved in this project. RTI International has developed a single-step catalytic biomass pyrolysis process to produce a hydrocarbon-rich bio-crude intermediate. Thismore »« less

Bio-Oil Separation and Stabilization by Supercritical Fluid Fractionation. 2014 Final Report

Technical Report Agblevor, Foster ; Petkovic, Lucia ; Bennion, Edward ; ...

The objective of this project is to use supercritical fluids to separate and fractionate algal-based bio-oils into stable products that can be subsequently upgraded to produce drop-in renewable fuels. To accomplish this objective, algae was grown and thermochemically converted to bio-oils using hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL), pyrolysis, and catalytic pyrolysis. The bio-oils were separated into an extract and a raffinate using near-critical propane or carbon dioxide. The fractions were then subjected to thermal aging studies to determine if the extraction process had stabilized the products. It was found that the propane extract fraction was twice as stable as the parent catalyticmore »« less
