Participants: Per Holmgren (UMU, P4), Henrik Wiinikka (LTU, P4), Fredrik Weiland (RISE ETC, P4)

Duration: 2026-2027

This project investigates how woody residues behave in CO₂-rich environments at extremely high process temperatures relevant for future thermochemical conversion technologies. The research focuses on electrified gasification, oxy-fuel conversion and sustainable carbon black production from biomass-derived feedstocks.

The project aims to improve understanding of fuel conversion chemistry, soot formation and ash behavior under high-temperature CO₂ conditions. The results may contribute to more carbon-efficient industrial processes and future fossil-free fuel and material production.
