The Biorenewables Development Centre (BDC) has a range of pre-processing equipment capable of processing a variety of biomass materials. Our custom-made pre-treatment vessel is used for biomass pre-treatments and enzymatic hydrolysis. Our pre-treatmnet vessel is a 100 L stainless steel vessel grade 316L capable of operating at up to 12 bar and around 180 °C, thereby allowing acid, base, peroxide, enzyme, heat, pressure and fibre expansion (aka steam explosion) treatments to be carried out. A variable speed agitator allows for good mixing of the solid and liquid fractions. The vessel is jacketed and heated with Texotherm HT22 oil from an external HTF250e Tricool Thermal Heater. This vessel can be used for the pre-treatment of different types of biomass (e.g. wheat straw, wood and Miscanthus) and the fibre expansion vessel is also capable of doing explosion (i.e. rapid release of the pressure inside the vessel to open the structure of biomass). | The Biorenewables Development Centre (BDC) has a range of pre-processing equipment capable of processing a variety of biomass materials.

'''CENER Biomass Department''' performs applied research activities in the field of biomass, providing R&D services and technical assistance to all agents of the sector. The area is focused on the development & optimization of production processes of bioproducts, solid biofuels, advanced liquid or gaseous biofuels, as well as biorefinery concepts. Indeed, the main pillars are focused on '''solid biofuels, bioprocesses and comprehensive sustainability assessment'''. The main infrastructures in this department include the '''Biomass Laboratory''' (biomass & biofuels characterization and process development at lab scale), as well as the '''Biorefinery and Bioenergy Centre (BIO2C)'''. | |||
