Public Deliverables

Deliverable D1.3 Regional feedstock potentials and preference regions for HTL projects

Deliverable 1.3 describes the methodological approach and results of the spatially explicit quantification of 14 single biomass feedstocks, which are of high relevance for hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) processes. Analysis are based on the geographic extent of the European Union and preference regions are highlighted in cartographic visualizations.

The production of HTL fuels from three different feedstock classes shows the flexibility of the process. Meeting jet fuel specifications is an appropriate target to validate that high-performance #TransportationFuels can indeed be produced from a broad range of...

Great Milestone for the HyFlexFuel project! First time successfully mastered the upgrading of a sewage sludge biocrude

Great Milestone for the HyFlexFuel project! Our colleagues from Aalborg University have for the first time successfully mastered the upgrading of a sewage sludge biocrude. The biocrude was produced by Aarhus University via hydrothermal liquefaction of sewage sludge...
