4 What is a Biofuel Solid biomass and animal products Gas/Liquids from Biomass Municipal waste Industrial waste Agricultural waste Dedicated energy plants

5 Biomass utilisation Forest industry sector (Black liquor+other biomass) District heating sector in Sweden, (25 TWh times increase since 1990) Single family houses (Wood logs) Biogas

6 Black Liquor Gasification

7 Content Black Liquor Recovery boilers Gasification of Black Liquor Black Liquor as Automotive fuel Ongoing research at LTU

8 Black Liquor in perspective Product Grain 1350 Iron/Steel 810 Salt 120 Milk 419 Potatoes 220 Black Liquor 150 Sugar 50 Mton/year Fuel Mtons/year Oil 3800 Coal 2200 Gas 1850 Gasoline 1000 Black Liquor 150

9 Black Liquor in the Chemical world Constituents of Sodium NaOH,, Na 2 S, Na 2 CO 3, Na 2 SO 4 Typical Elementary Analysis C 39% H 4% O 34% Na 19% S 4%

10 Where does black liquor come from? Black liquor is produced in the pulping process White liquor is used as cooking liquid. Organic material is dissolved into the white liquor to produce black liquor Important to recover the black liquor because there are no other utilisation areas of interest
