VTT is interested in subjecting a batch of pyrolysis bio-oil to the slurry hydroprocessing conditions. The batch of the fast pyrolysis lignocellulosic bio-oil will be between 400-500 kg and VTT expects that significant d…
egree of deoxygenation will be achieved (at least 50% oxygen removed). Bio-oil and stabilization catalyst will be provided by VTT. Liquid products of hydropocessing will be provided by the contractor to VTT along with the campaign report. Detailed scope: Hydroprocessing of highly oxygenated pyrolysi
s oils is known in the art as a method to improve the properties of bio-oils for further refining to fuels and chemicals. In particular, slurry-phase hydroprocessing, performed via continuous feeding of bio-oil, dispersed catalyst and hydro
