dc.description.abstractBatch hydrothermal liquefaction of spent coffee grounds was done in this study. The effect of subsequent diluted aqueous phase recirculation was studied at a constant temperature of 275 °C and residence time of 10 minutes. Four recirculation reactions were completed following a control reaction and the results were compared. It was found that the recirculation of the aqueous phase had increased the bio-oil mass yield by 51 %. An increase in the organics and nitrogen concentration was observed in the aqueous phase, while the total organic carbon decreased due to migration of carbon species to the bio-oil product phase. The bio-oil retained its high energy content following the recirculation reactions with a higher heating value of 32.61 MJ/kg. The main component of the bio-oil was identified as C16- C18 aliphatic acids with long carbon chain hydrocarbonsen_US
