- Additional information
- This work on hydrothermal processing (HTP) of wet biomass is one of the very first published in the field, which confirms the significant impact of the nature of the feedstock and the thermal severity of the process on the fate of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus. The findings will inform practitioners on the design criteria for low-temperature HTP for resource recovery from waste. This work was used as supporting evidence for the successful submission of a grant application that studies the use of waste biomass for the production of biofuels and recovery of nutrients (BBSRC; BB/S011439/1).
