Patent

CA 2676982

The invention relates to processes that efficiently convert carbon-containing materials, such as biomass, into products in such a manner that the energy, carbon, and mass content of the materials are efficiently transferred into such products. Such methods include converting the materials into at least one intermediate by a biological conversion process and at least one intermediate by a thermochemical conversion process and reacting the intermediates to form the product. Such methods have a chemical energy efficiency to produce the product that is greater than the chemical energy efficiency of a solely biological conversion process to produce the product and that is greater than the chemical energy efficiency of a process in which all of the material is initially subjected to a thermochemical conversion step as part of the process to produce the product.

L'invention concerne des procédés qui convertissent efficacement des matériaux contenant du carbone, tels que la biomasse, en produits de telle sorte que l'énergie, le carbone et la teneur en masse des matériaux sont efficacement transférés dans ces produits. Ces procédés comprennent la conversion des matériaux en au moins un intermédiaire par un procédé de conversion biologique et la réaction des intermédiaires pour former le produit. Ces procédés présentent une efficacité d'énergie chimique pour produire le produit qui est supérieure à l'efficacité d'énergie chimique d'un simple procédé de conversion biologique pour produire le produit et supérieure à l'efficacité d'énergie chimique d'un procédé dans lequel la totalité du matériau est soumise au préalable à une étape de conversion thermochimique en tant que partie du procédé pour produire le produit.
