Ample interest for more efficient utilization of bio-based residues has emerged in the Nordic
pulp and paper (P&P) industry, which uses virgin wood as feedstock. Although different …

A hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) process was applied to six biomass feedstocks—three
woody and three herbaceous. Each feedstock was treated in liquid water for 30 min at …

Bio-energy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) can result in negative net carbon
emissions and may therefore provide an important technology option for meeting current …

Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) converts biomass into a coal-like substance, here
referred to as biocoal. Beech wood chips are treated hydrothermally at 210° C for 3h in a …

Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) includes conversion of wet biomass to hydrochar, a coal-
like product, eliminating the need for biomass pre-drying. There has been limited focus on …

Instead of an exclusive composting of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste
(OFMSW), anaerobic digestion (AD) has emerged as a widely used upstream process in …

In this work, the effects on industrial plant viability of using olive pruning (OP) and off-
specification compost (OSC) as HTC feedstock have been studied on 1) only HTC facilities …

The sustainable supply of high‐quality, low‐cost biomass feedstock to cellulosic
biorefineries is still a challenge. Utilizing corn stover as the single feedstock to a biorefinery …

Biomass is a non-intermittent energy source, which can play an important role in grid-based
energy systems, since they needsome non-intermittent sources in order to balance the …

Wood-fired combined heat and power (CHP) plants are a proven technology for producing
domestic, carbon-neutral heat and power in Nordic countries. One drawback of CHP plants …
