US Patent:

20120005949, Jan 12, 2012

Filed:

Apr 4, 2011

Appl. No.:

13/079777

Inventors:

James STEVENS - Katy TX, US
Michelle YOUNG - Manvel TX, US
Daniel EUHUS - Corvallis OR, US
Alex COULTHARD - Sugarland TX, US
Doug NAAE - Sugarland TX, US

International Classification:

C10L 1/00
B01J 19/00

US Classification:

44307, 422208, 422187

Abstract:

The present invention provides an improved method for solvent liquefaction of biomass to produce liquid products such as transportation fuel. The method uses a novel solvent combination that promotes liquefaction relatively quickly, and it reduces the need to transport large amounts of hydrogen or hydrogen-carrying solvents. It operates at lower pressure than previous methods, does not require a catalyst or hydrogen gas or CO input, and provides very high conversion of biomass into a bio-oil that can be further processed in a petroleum refinery. It also beneficially provides a way to recycle a portion of the crude liquefaction product for use as part of the solvent combination for the biomass liquefaction reaction.

Inventors:

- San Ramon CA, US
Michelle K. YOUNG - Houston TX, US

International Classification:

G01N 33/28
G01T 1/20
C10L 1/04

Abstract:

A method of monitoring renewable carbon in fuel streams in a refinery or blend facility while co-processing a bio-feedstock with a fossil feedstock or blending a renewable product with a fossil product wherein the method provides for quantification of renewable C14 carbon content to adjust the total renewable content to a targeted renewable content in situ while lowering the limit of detection.
