Biofuel Production Ecology
Contents
Basics
- May need better name
- Essentiall a good chart for the layout of all the "ins" to all the finished products for biofuel
Feedstocks
- Biomass
- Non-Recyclable Plastic
- Misc Waste
Intermediates
Outputs
- Biodiesel
- Butanol
- Hydrogen
- Methane
- Misc Petrolium Products (Distillate Products all varies based on feedstocks + cracking etc)
Processes Used
Extraction
- Anerobic Digestion
- HTL
- Oil Extraction Organic oils seems to be the technical term Algae Oil etc
- Pyrolysis
Initial Processing
- Biogas Upgrading - Biogas to Methane
- Carbon Dioxide Removal - remove co2 from biogas, water shifted syngas, etc
- Fractional Distillation - turns Bio-Crude and pyrolysis oil into usable/proccessable fractions
- Steam Reforming - turn methane into hydrogen, not always needed, but is an option
- Water-Gas Shift Reaction - turns Syngas into co2 and hydrogen
Final Product Production
- Biodiesel Production
- Gas Liquification
- Petrochemistry all the cracking etc
- Syngas Fermentation
