摘要: Four biorefinery technologies were studied for feedstock allocation, optimum facility location, economic feasibility, and their impacts on Alabama. The are: (1) circulated fluidized bed gasification of woody biomass Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) fuels power production; (2) simultaneous saccharification fermentation (SSF) paper sludge ethanol (3) direct spouted (DSB) with air steam power; (4) combustion production. locations all four processes southwestern average transportation distance was about 32 miles (51.5 km) to the plants; however, longer distances required where is provided by pulp plants in region. SSF process along DSB only economically feasible an over 80 22.5% internal rate return, respectively. Economic comparable each other. © 2010 American Institute Chemical Engineers Environ Prog, 2010.
