The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to MicroBio Engineering to demonstrate a reduction in nitrogen levels and toxicity of Hydrothermal Liquefaction (HTL) through treatment with supercritical water oxidation; design a pilot testing facility; and define a regulatory, intellectual, and economic pathway towards commercial scale-up of plant diverting mixed wet wastes from land applications to low-carbon biocrude.
