Postdoc position on "Catalytic pyrolysis of biobased feedstocks over tailored zeolites"
The catalytic pyrolysis of biomass feedstocks is of high relevance for the production of renewable fuels and chemicals. However, the high corrosivity, poor thermal stability, and low heat capacity of bio-oil impede its industrial application with existing infrastructure. To effectively use this fuel, the highly-oxygenated compounds must be chemically converted into products that are more sta ble and more similar to currently used fuels and chemicals. The additional incorporation of a catalyst has been shown to selectively favour the reaction pathways into valuable hydrocarbon products.
