201021000 | FEED OF TWO OR MORE CARBONACEOUS MATERIAL (AT LEAST THE PREDOMINATE ONE BEING SOLID) | 7 |
20130008772 | GASIFICATION PROCESS - A method for converting biomass into syngas by converting the biomass into a viscous, pumpable pyrolysis liquid and feeding this liquid into a gasifier. The biomass is first fed to a pyrolysis unit which will convert the biomass in part to the viscous, pumpable pyrolysis liquid. This pyrolysis liquid is then fed into a gasifier either by itself or with a solid carbon-containing component where it will react to form syngas. | 01-10-2013 |

20090139851 | RAPID THERMAL CONVERSION OF BIOMASS - The present invent provides improved rapid thermal conversion processes for efficiently converting wood, other biomass materials, and other carbonaceous feedstock (including hydrocarbons) into high yields of valuable liquid product, e.g., bio-oil, on a large scale production. In an embodiment, biomass material, e.g., wood, is feed to a conversion system where the biomass material is mixed with an upward stream of hot heat carriers, e.g., sand, that thermally convert the biomass into a hot vapor stream. The hot vapor stream is rapidly quenched with quench media in one or more condensing chambers located downstream of the conversion system. The rapid quenching condenses the vapor stream into liquid product, which is collected from the condensing chambers as a valuable liquid product. In one embodiment, the liquid product itself is used as the quench media. | 06-04-2009 |
20110233042 | BIOMASS CONVERSION PROCESS - Biomass is used as a co-feed for a heavy petroleum oil coking process to improve the operation of the coking process and to utilize biomaterial for the production of transportation fuels. The coking process may be a delayed coking process or a fluidized bed coking process and in each case, the presence of the biomass will decrease the coke drying time so reducing coke handling problems in the unit besides forming a superior coke product. In the case of a fluidized bed coking process using a gasifier for the coke, the addition of an alkali metal salt improves the operation of the gasifier. | 09-29-2011 |
20120325641 | PYROLYSIS OF SOLID BIOMASS IN THE PRODUCTION OF BIOFUELS - The invention relates to the production of a biofuel from a feedstock that includes a solid biomass material such as lemna. A hydrocarbon feedstock is fed into the coking process and reaction products generated from the thermal process are collected. The invention further relates to the production of a coke product having an isotropic structure. | 12-27-2012 |

20150329784 | CONTROL OF COKE MORPHOLOGY IN DELAYED COKING - A delayed coking process in which shot coke and thermally cracked coker products are produced from a sponge coke- and/or transition coke-forming resid feed comprising sponge coke asphaltenes by mixing heteroatom (preferably nitrogen) containing asphaltenes from a shot coke-forming resid with a heated sponge coke-forming resid to form shot coke directing asphaltene aggregates in the resid. The mixture of resid with the added asphaltene is held at an elevated temperature to allow co-aggregates of sponge coke and shot coke asphaltenes to form which, upon delayed coking promote the production of a free-flowing shot coke product. | 11-19-2015 |
