Boosting the Higher Heating Value of Eucalyptus globulus via Thermochemical Liquefaction

Biomass can be envisaged as a potential solution to mitigate the problems that extensive exploitation of fossil sources causes on environment. Transforming biomass into added-value products with better calorific properties is highly desired. Thermochemical liquefaction convert bio-oil. The work herein presented concerns study direct Eucalyptus globulus sawdust. main goal was optimise operating conditions process achieve high bio-oil conversion rates. Studies were carried out understand impact factors, such residence time, catalyst concentration, temperature, and biomass-to-solvent ratio. E. sawdust achieved maximum 96.2%. A higher reached when eucalyptus sawdust’s thermochemical conducted over 180 min in presence >2.44% concentration at 160 °C. lower ratio favours leading afforded heating value than
