Subproject 1


Product optimisation of BTL production



Subproject 2 investigates the gasification via autothermal fluidised bed gasification and compares with two-step fast pyrolysis followed by the pressurised entrained flow gasification. Both gasification routes will be tested on pilot scale gasifiers with standard biomass. Exergetic analysis will be done for optimisation of the processes. Gas treatment measures will be compared with those of the existing fluidised bed gasification of wood in Güssing. Longterm test of the gasification and FT synthesis at Güssing will demonstrate the suitability of the technique. At Güssing and at Cutec Fischer-Tropsch synthesis followed by hydrocracking of the produced waxes will be performed and optimised. Investigation of a new approach of developing catalytic cracking of the FT waxes will be performed at Certh.
