Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019162299A1] A biomass treatment system (1) comprises a separator (22), a microwave reactor (27), a pump (35) to deliver solids output from the separator to the microwave reactor. There is a reactor outlet (28) with a valve (45, 46) for delivering microwave-treated digestate to an external AD (100). A controller (20) controls the separator to provide feedstock with a desired solids content to the microwave reactor (27) and controls the microwave reactor for desired treatment of the feedstock. The system (1) is modular with couplers for coupling to an AD system (100-103) to provide a combined system, in which the microwave reactor (27) provides treated feedstock for an AD.
