Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022248233A1] The invention relates to a method for continuously producing a combustible material from biomass, comprising: - continuously exposing the biomass introduced into a reactor to the water vapour at a pressure of between 15.3 and 22.9 bars for a sufficient amount of time to cause steam cracking; - continuously extracting, from the reactor, a portion of the biomass contained in the reactor. According to the invention, such a method comprises: - transferring the biomass extracted from the reactor in a conduit to separation means, wherein the vapour pressure is between 7 and 8 bars; - a step of separating a portion of the vapour extracted from the reactor to include the biomass and to exclude the biomass; - a step of reducing the pressure of the biomass separated from the vapour portion to atmospheric pressure.
