Energy recovery and nutrients recycling from municipal sewage sludge
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Hydrothermal Liquefaction (HTL) could be a promising and better alternative to other techniques for energy recovery from municipal sewage sludge (MSS). However, the nutrients (i.e., N, and P) recovery potential from the ...
Use of co-solvents in hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of microalgae
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
This study reviewed and summarized the literature regarding the use of alcohols during hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of algal biomass feedstocks. The use of both pure alcohols and alcohol-water co-solvents were considered. ...
