| Technology Brief |
The process was developed at GTI, Chicago, IL, USA and where CRI has assisted in developing the catalyst. CRI, a catalyst company within the Shell group, and GTI have joint development and commercial agreements in place whereby the process is marketed by CRI.
The IH2 technology is a catalytic thermochemical process that converts biomass directly to high purity hydrocarbon fuels and/or blend stocks with an energy content recovery (~70%) in all configurations. The process uses catalytic hydropyrolysis, i.e. pyrolysis in the presence of a high concentration of hydrogen, in a pressurized fluidized bed.
The liquids formed are processed by an integrated hydrodeoxygenation/hydrotreatment unit while the gases that have a high hydrogen and hydrocarbon content are converted to a hydrogen-rich gas by steam reforming. The hydrogen is recovered and used in the hydropyrolysis and the upgrading steps. In addition, thermal energy can be recovered for production o stem and/or power.
