Techno-Economic Assessment of Pulp Mill Infrastructure Integration with the Alcohol-to-Jet Pathway for Aviation Fuel Production

摘要

1 AJF production through Alcohol-to-Jet conversion technology is likely to see further commercial success in the near future as long as advanced fermentation technologies continue to advance 2 A kraft pulp mill partial retrofit may provide a competitive scenario for the production of AJF through alcohol fermentation, The amount of energy generation is a strong determining factor, however. 3 Further modeling and investigation into biomass pulp conversion and energy recovery potential is recommended to further optimize the economics of integrated biorefineries. Room for continued improvement through engineering solutions.
