Co-Processing Fast Pyrolysis Bio-Oils and Hydrothermal Liquefaction Biocrudes in Fluid Catalytic Cracking and Hydroprocessing in Refineries

Reinhard Seiser, Huamin Wang

Research output: NRELPresentation

Abstract

Co-processing of biogenic feedstocks within the existing petroleum infrastructure represents an opportunity to incorporate large volumes of bio-carbon into transportation fuels. However, upgrading intermediate liquids from biomass and waste to final products efficiently and economically, while minimizing impacts to existing refinery infrastructure, remains a notable barrier to commercialization. The co-processing project, Bio-oil Co-processing with Refinery Streams, aimed to generate foundational knowledge for processing renewable intermediates in petroleum refineries and offer co-processing strategies, as well as develop new methods for biogenic carbon tracking and measurement.
