Publication number: 20120108860Abstract: This invention relates to a process to utilize a torrefaction pretreatment step for biomass pyrolysis process. This pretreatment improves the quality of the pyrolysis oil by reducing acidity. The inventive process shows that as a pretreatment to pyrolysis, resulting pyrolysis oil obtained from torrefied biomass has approximately 25% lower acetic acid than that from untorrefied biomass pyrolysis oil.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 25, 2011Publication date: May 3, 2012Applicant: CONOCOPHILLIPS COMPANYInventors: Daren Einar DAUGAARD, Kening GONG, Alexandru PLATON, Samuel T.
