Superhydrophobic and superlipophilic biochar produced from microalga torrefaction and modification for upgrading fuel properties
Abstract Torrefaction operation is an essential pathway for solid biofuel upgrading, and good hydrophobicity of torrefied biochar is conducive to its storage. Herein, a two-stage treatment of torrefaction followed by modification by hexadecyltrimethoxysilane was adopted to improve the moisture resistance performance of biochar. This two-stage treatment process led to a longer torrefied microalgal biochar preservation time […]
