LCA of conceptual biomass liquefaction process
Goal and scope definition
The goal of this LCA study is to identify and compare the
environmental impacts of thermochemical conversion process of
converting oil palm biomass to bio-oil via hydrothermal liquefaction.
Fig. 2 shows the system boundary of this study. In this study,
the functional unit selected was one kilogram (1 kg) of bio-oil
produced.
