| dc.description.abstract | The effect that 6 different biomass feedstocks have
on biochar was investigated. The biochar was produced through
hydrothermal liquefaction at temperatures of 260˚C and 300˚C.
The effect of temperature was also investigated. It was
discovered that lower temperatures produce more biochar, but
higher temperatures ensure a biochar with properties better
suited to be used as catalyst support. The feedstocks did cause
the properties to vary and thus it was found that feedstocks with
higher fractions of cellulose and lignin will yield larger surface
areas, pore volumes and calorific values. The results proved that
biochar can compete and eventually replace traditional
heterogeneous catalys | en_US |
