Description

<p>Efficient conversion of biomass-derived furfural into high value-added chemicals such as tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (THFA) by hydrogenation has received much attention in terms of post-fossil fuel and energy saving. While many researchers have put their efforts on developing cost-effective catalysts for furfural hydrogeneration, only little investigations have been reported on its techno-economic analysis as well as process optimization. This study aims to design an energy saving process model of furfural hydrogeneration for THFA synthesis coupled with thermal recovery system consisting of organic Rankine cycle and heat pump, and to evaluate energy efficiency and economics of the proposed process through Aspen simulation, based on our previous experimental data with Ni1Cu1-Al1 catalyst.</p>
