The pilot-scale HTL plant processes aqueous biomass slurries (~20% dry matter content) at temperatures up to 350 °C and pressures around 200 bar, where water does not boil but remains in a liquid state. Under these conditions, biomass is converted into a crude bio-oil, which is separated from the process water behind the reactor.
