Woody biomass gave up to 36% carbon conversion to pure hydrocarbons at optimum conditions. Among their findings were that for pine, the average carbon conversion to liquid-range hydrocarbons was 36% with a catalyst-to-biomass ratio of 10:1 at 600°C. This conversion presents more than 50% of the theoretical yield.
