Additional Information Biogas Energy (CA, USA) and their partners are developing a fast pyrolysis demonstration facility in Sacramento, California. Project partners include Thermophil International (Hamburg), Bio Energy Concept (Lüneberg) Joint BioEnergy Institute and California State University, with financial support (USD 5.7M) from the California Energy Commission. The demonstration plant will process up to 500 kg of biomass/h with the goal of producing 190 000 L of pyrolysis oil over the 3.5-year lifetime of the project. The demonstration plant will be located on the waste management site of Western Placer Management Authorities. The plant will use fast pyrolysis technology using an ablative reactor to produce pyrolysis oil from forestry residues, beetle infested wood, and demolition wood. Commissioning of the plant is scheduled for the middle of 2020.
