A team of solar researchers in Greece is contributing to the development of a technology to produce bio-crude from mixed wet waste processed onsite in a mobile solar-heated reaction chamber. They have innovated the use of concentrated solar thermal (CST) energy to heat this process using hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) to produce bio-crude, a thick oil …

Abstract: A novel strategy for the decarbonization of crude oil distillation was proposed considering two distillation columns located in Sicily that were simulated by adapting the equipment datasheet of the refinery Raffineria di Milazzo (RAM). The proposed approach consists of the integration of the topping section with a concentrating solar power (CSP) plant to decrease …
