Thermochemical biofuel production in hydrothermal media: A review of sub- and supercritical water technologies
Andrew A. Peterson,Andrew A. Peterson,Frédéric Vogel,Russell P. Lachance,Morgan Fröling,Michael Jerry Antal,Jefferson W. Tester +6 more
TL;DR: Several biomass hydrothermal conversion processes are in development or demonstration as mentioned in this paper, which are generally lower temperature (200-400 °C) reactions which produce liquid products, often called bio-oil or bio-crude.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon Deposition in Steam Reforming and Methanation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the causes of deactivation of supported metal catalysts by carbon or coke formation, and found that deactivation can occur due to fouling of the metal surface, blockage of catalysts pores and voids, and actual physical disintegration of the catalyst support.
