  • Patent number: 11732196
    Abstract: Provided is a method for upgrading pyrolysis oil through seawater electrochemical pretreatment of biomass and use thereof. The method includes: (1) crushing and sieving a biomass raw material to obtain a crushed biomass raw material, adding the crushed biomass raw material to a salt solution and mixing to be uniform to obtain a reactant mixture; performing an electrolytic reaction on the reactant mixture under conditions of stirring and an external voltage of 5-15 V for 2-8 hours to obtain a product mixture; after the electrolytic reaction, subjecting the product mixture to a suction filtration, collecting a filter cake, washing the filter cake and drying to obtain a pretreated biomass, and (2) subjecting the pretreated biomass obtained in step (1) to a pyrolysis reaction at a temperature of 400-600° C. for 30-90 minutes in a protective gas atmosphere, and collecting a pyrolysis oil by an organic solvent.

  • Patent number: 10253263
    Abstract: The invention belongs to the field of biomass energy utilization, and a continuous pyrolysis and carbonization method of agricultural and forestry biomass is disclosed. The method comprises the following steps: feeding biomass feedstock to a dryer for drying, then transporting to a continuous pyrolysis apparatus for pyrolyzing to obtain pyrolysis semicoke and pyrolysis volatiles; and transporting the pyrolysis semicoke to a carbonization apparatus for carbonization to obtain biomass charcoal and semi-coke carbonized volatiles; then discharging the pyrolysis volatiles and the semi-coke carbonized volatiles, and cooling to obtain tar, wood vinegar and pyrolysis gas; introducing the pyrolysis gas into a combustion apparatus for combustion to obtain a high temperature flue gas; and finally transporting the high temperature flue gas into pyrolysis apparatus and carbonization apparatus for supplying heat, then the flue gas after supplying heat is delivered to the dryer and discharging tail gas.
