Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing crude oil from biomass by direct liquefaction under atmospheric pressure, involving the following steps: introducing dried biomass into a reactor containing heavy oil to form a sump oil phase consisting of biomass and heavy oil; maintaining the temperature of the sump oil phase at a predetermined reaction temperature; condensing and collecting the volatile reaction products; and isolating and collecting the crude oil. Said method is characterized in that the heavy oil phase has at least 5 wt. % organically bound oxygen.
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the thermal conversion of heteroatom-containing crude oils into low-heteroatom light and middle oils as a product. The invention further relates to the products produced by this method and their application.
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for thermochemically converting organic waste material having high molecular weight into liquid combustible materials and fuels, comprising the following steps: feeding organic waste material into a reactor, heating the organic waste material to a temperature between 250° C. and 500° C. while avoiding exceeding critical coking temperatures in the reactor, feeding biogenic substances to the reactor, collecting and condensing the gases and vapors released from the mixture of organic waste material and biogenic substances, collecting the condensate and letting phases form, and removing the phase(s) containing liquid combustible materials and fuels.
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a petrochemical product from biomass, involving the following steps: dewatering and drying biomass; producing crude oil by the direct liquefaction of the dried biomass; hydrogenating the crude oil into hydrocarbons; and refining the hydrocarbons into a petrochemical product. Said method is characterized in that the hydrogen used for hydrogenating the crude oil is obtained from the wastewater accumulated during the dewatering and drying of the biomass and/or during the direct liquefaction and from the residue accumulated during the direct liquefaction.
