Developing a pyrolysis based biorefinery (webinar)

'Developing a pyrolysis based biorefinery' was the second in a series of webinars organised by the EU-funded Bio4Products project (www.bio4products.eu).

The webinar features the following presentations:

02:02 Frederik Ronsse, Ghent University - Introduction to fast pyrolysis: how does it work and why it should be used
23:14 Gerhard Muggen, BTG-BTL Biomass-to-liquid - The current market status of pyrolysis plants in Europe: a success story
41:43 Paul de Wild, TNO - Fractional condensation of biomass pyrolysis vapours
1:00:44 Hans Heeres, BTG Biomass Technology Group - State of the art in fast pyrolysis oil fractionation

Moderator: Valeria Mazzagatti, Greenovate! Europe

The webinar is the second in a series called 'From biomass to bio-based products'. The first webinar on feedstock strategy can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/39P7Sb3IkHg. Subsequent webinars will focus on: Making products out of lignin and sugars (January 2020), Ensuring sustainability (March 2020).

The Bio4Products project is testing the feasibility of a fast pyrolysis based biorefinery concept. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 723070.

Novel technologies are under development in Europe to transform biomass – a valuable and sustainable feedstock – into high added-value chemicals, materials and energy to replace raw materials derived from crude oil.

One very promising technology is fast pyrolysis. This process is earning growing interest because it can convert a wide range of difficult-to-handle biomass into a clean and uniform bio-oil, which is easy to store and use for bioenergy or biobased products. Importantly, the process can unlock complex lignocellulosic biomass, keeping the key chemical functionalities in separate, depolymerised fractions.

This webinar will go through all you need to know about pyrolysis, from state-of-the-art techniques to the current status of commercial plants in Europe, with four major experts in this field.
