(54) | Process for manufacturing fuel from ligno-cellulose material |
(57) The invention relates to a process for manufacturing fuel from ligno-cellulosic material
such as wood, straw, nut hulls etc.. Such material can be converted to a cellulosic
slurry which contains high sugar and saccarine values after elimination of most of
its lignin which may be used as a heat source, or is dried and ground to a fine powder,
and is then subjected to a catalytic cracking and reforming process whereby different
hydrocarbons are produced which are separated in a separation column. |
