“…In our previous publication, we could show that the DCL of biocoals, from a wide range of biomass raw materials, is under modern liquefaction conditions superior to other biomass liquefaction techniques in literature [32]. The combustion gases of the thus produced biofuels could be recycled for plant growth, and the plants could be again energetically densified by HTC and the following DCL to biofuels [32]. This alternative route could be economically and ecologically beneficial, since no new CO 2 emissions are generated [32].…”
