Chemical Applications of Bio-oil

The liquid produced from biomass pyrolysis (pyrolysis liquid/bio-oil) contains various valuable compounds, such as acetic acid, furfural, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, methanol, ketones, alcohols, phenols, organic acids, and others.These compounds can be used to produce adhesives, resins, phenolics, food flavorings, preservatives, slow-release fertilizers, de-icing agents, pesticides, surfactants, antioxidants, wood preservatives, bio-carbon electrodes, coal dust suppressants, and more.

Biochar as a Process Additive

The char produced from pyrolysis (biochar) can be used as a soil amendment, fuel, or chemical feedstock. It can also be utilized for water purification, air filtration, and food and beverage processing.

Adsorbent

The high specific surface area of biochar makes it suitable as an adsorbent for applications such as waste gas treatment and wastewater treatment.

Catalyst Support

Biochar can serve as a catalyst support in chemical reaction processes.

Carbon Electrode Material

Biochar can be used to prepare activated carbon electrodes for electrochemical applications.

Chemical Applications of Syngas

Syngas produced from pyrolysis (primarily composed of hydrogen and carbon monoxide) can be used as fuel, for power generation, or as chemical building blocks for other processes.

Methanol Synthesis

Syngas is converted to methanol over a catalyst.

Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis

Syngas is converted into liquid fuels and chemicals

Ammonia Synthesis

Hydrogen from syngas is used for ammonia production.

Chemical Applications of Wood Vinegar

Wood vinegar is a by-product that can be used as a natural pesticide and plant growth promoter. Additionally, wood vinegar can be used as a deodorizer, animal feed additive, organic fertilizer fermentation agent, preservative, and more.

Acetic Acid Extraction

Wood vinegar is rich in acetic acid, which can be extracted for industrial production.

Phenolic Compound Extraction

Wood vinegar contains phenolic compounds that can serve as chemical raw materials.

Smoke Flavoring Preparation

Wood vinegar can be used to prepare smoke flavorings for food processing.
