Abstract
Ru—Mo sulfide bimetallic catalysts are disclosed for catalytic hydrothermal gasification (CHG) of aqueous streams produced from hydrothermal liquefaction of wet wastes. This catalyst is sulfur resistant and requires less Ru loading compared to the current catalyst, which addresses the most critical challenges for CHG. The CHG process with this catalyst converts the aqueous stream to CH, H, CO, and other light hydrocarbons as well as cleaned water that can be recycled or released into the environment.
