Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007112090A2] A high efficiency method for synthesizing biomass fuels leveraging the synergistic impact of ionic liquids on both the significant gains in pretreatment of biomass and the utilization of the combination of ionic liquids and carbon dioxide under supercritical conditions for energy generation is provided. The strategic use of heat exchangers, preferably microchannel heat exchangers and microchannel reactors further increase the efficiency and performance of the system by extensive heat recovery and the direct utilization of the biomass solution as the working fluid of a thermodynamic cycle.
