I: BioAL-COAL

Project BioAL-COAL

„Extention of destilleries to Lignocellulose-Biorefineries through combination of

innovative conversion technologies“

Goal: Contribution to substitution of fossil fuels by the application of different

technologies of biomasse processing

Budget HS OWL: 430.000 €

Förderprogramm Ingenieur-Nachwuchs des BMBF (IN2013-425-052)

Motivation

Enable agricultural destilleries to

process other and cheaper subtrates,

primary Lignocellulose

Low cost extension module, short ROI

Optimize process streams and use

synergies – biorefinery

1) total valorization of the input material

2) minimal energy consumption

Cascade processes

What is a biorefinery?

Conversion processes and experimental data

Original Idea

HTC Biochar

- Principle

Dehydratisation of Carbohydrates

C6H12O6 „C6H2O“ + 5 H2O - ∆ E

- Process parameter

- 180 - 240 °C, in water

- Pressure 15 - 55 bar

- for 4 to 16 h

Szenario I

Szenario II

Szenario III

Problems

lack of steam

leads to smaler HTA (Pretreatment Unit)

leads to less lignocellulose bioethanol

add expensive wheat for reaching maximum capacitiy of

ethanol facility

lower biogas yield of substrates

Status Quo

Scenario 3.0

Scenario 3.1

What is necessary?

Fazit

Signifikante Verbesserung des Wirkungsgrades

Erweiterung von Lignocellulose – Bioraffinerien durch HTC

Biokohle

Schlüsseltechnologie ist das „Pretreatment“ für Ethanol und

Biogas

gesteigerte Produktion von Ökostrom wirtschaftlich am

wichtigsten

schneller ROI

Signifikantes Potential für dezentrale,

mittelständische Bioraffinerien

Offene Fragen?

Substitution des Weizens bei der Ethanolherstellung durch

Maissilage

Nutzung der Biokohle für Dampferzeugung

Methan - Direkteinspeisung
