Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for treating a fluid produced from a biorefinery to remove contaminants, such as metals and sulfur therefrom. Biomass is pyrolysed and activated to form activated carbon used to remove such contaminants. The fluid produced from the biorefinery may be one or more of a biofuel, a biogas, and wastewater.
