Pyrolysis oil treatment using Kolbe electrolysis of organic acids

EBIO presents poster to introduce Pyrolysis oil treatment using Kolbe electrolysis of organic acids at EUBCE 2022,

Motivation:

Electrochemical Acid decarboxylation (Kolbe/non-Kolbe) is one of the promising route to convert low value pyrolysis crude into energy dense hydrocarbons and chemicals through coupling (homo and cross) reactions. The on-spot surplus or excess energy at industrial pyrolysis facility can be utilized with integrated electrolysers for continuous up-gradation of pyrolysis oil, eliminating the need of energy intensive conventional deploymerization, hydrogenation and decarboxylation system.
