Influence of potassium carbonate (K2CO3) as catalyst on biocrude oil yield and properties via hydrothermal liquefaction of Spirulina

Influence of potassium carbonate (K2CO3) as catalyst on biocrude oil yield and properties via hydrothermal liquefaction of Spirulina

This study is relevant to developing biomass, specifically microalgae, as a source for a biofuel production through hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL). Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is a thermochemical conversion that requires no drying of the feedstock because the whole microalgae biomass is decompo...
