Abstract
The concept of nozzle reactor with countercurrent mixing has been identified as suitable for upscaling of fast hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of solid biomass residues and wastes. It is because of the fact that the reactor is capable of very fast heating and tolerating solid particles suspended in the liquid stream flowing through the reactor. A laboratory-scale setup has been developed, adopting the nozzle reactor concept. The reactor performance including the countercurrent mixing has been investigated and tested for fast HTL of lignin residues from steam explosion. This chapter presents and analyzes the development and the need of optimization of the reactor.

Hydrothermal conversion of biomass to fuels and energetic materials

TL;DR: The main research directions in the hydrothermal conversion of biomass into fuels and carbon throughout gasification to produce H2 or CH4, liquefaction to produce crude oils and phenols from lignin as well as carbonization to produce carbonaceous materials which can be either used as fuels (carbon negative chars) or interesting energetic materials (hydrothermal carbons).
