Continuous catalytic hydrothermal gasification of algal biomass and case study on toxicity of aluminum as a step toward effluents recycling

Christian Ludwig, Frédéric Vogel, Mariluz Bagnoud, Martin Brandenberger

A novel process named SunCHem has been proposed to produce methane via catalytic hydrothermal gasification of microalgae [1-3]. The process is innovative because it is designed as a closed-cycle system with respect to water, nutrients and some of the CO2, ...
