| abstract |
The invention relates to a method for treating carbonaceous material, said method comprising:a) Providing a carbonaceous material CM,b) Subjecting the carbonaceous material CM to hydrothermal gasification in a HTG reactor (11), thereby producing:- an inorganic solid residue (12),- a first gaseous fraction G1 comprising CH<sub>4</sub>, CO, CO<sub>2</sub> and H<sub>2</sub>, and- a filtrate F1 containing readily biodegradable carbons such as VFAs,c) Subjecting at least part of the filtrate F1 to an anaerobic treatment step in an anaerobic tank (13), leading to a digestate (14).The invention also relates to an installation for treating carbonaceous material. |
