Title:
BIOMASS TREATMENT SYSTEM, SACCHARIDE SOLUTION PRODUCING PROCESS USING BIOMASS AS RAW MATERIAL, AND ORGANIC RAW MATERIAL PRODUCING PROCESS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/132409
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This biomass treatment system includes: a hydrothermal decomposition section (17) for decomposing the cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin contained in a biomass (11) as a raw material under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions in a main section (13), namely a tank having a gas-liquid interface (13a), and thus removing a lignin component and a hemicellulose component from the biomass (11); a discharge section (18) for discharging a biomass solid component (20) (a component insoluble in hot-water) obtained by the decomposition; a slurrying tank (21) which is connected to the discharge section (18) and in which the discharged biomass solid component (20) is slurried in water (19) fed thereinto to form a biomass solid component slurry (24); and a solid-liquid separation apparatus (30) including both a settling tank (31) which is provided on a discharge line (L1) for discharging the biomass solid component slurry (24) and in which the biomass solid component slurry (24) is settled and a scooping-up and conveying means (34) for scooping up the biomass solid component (20) deposited at the bottom (31b) of the settling tank (31) and separating the solid biomass component (20) from water.
