Title: Method for Producing Hydrocarbons and Oxygen-containing Compounds from Biomass

Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention generally relates to biochemical and chemical industry, and more particularly to a method which can be used in fermenting carbohydrate substrates of plant origin for producing C 1 -C 5  alcohols, and for synthesis of higher alcohols, other oxygen-containing compounds and hydrocarbons as well as for the production of motor fuel components from biomass. Since C 6  and higher alcohols, ethers, acetals, and higher hydrocarbons are not obtainable by a direct biochemical route, it is proposed to synthesize these using known chemical reactions, wherein by-products of fermentation are as raw materials for said synthesis. 
     BACKGROUND ART 
     Obtaining alcohols and other oxygen-containing compounds by fermentation of carbohydrates is known since long ago [Brief Chemical Encyclopaedia, Moscow, 1967] and used industrially mainly for producing ethanol. However, even the most advanced process for biochemical production of ethanol allows for conversion of only about half of the source carbohydrate substrate into the final commercial alcohol. The remaining part of carbohydrates is used for maintaining the vital functions of microorganisms and is converted into carbon dioxide. When it comes to other alcohols or other oxygen-containing compounds, such as ketones or acids [H. G. Schlegel. Allgemeine Mikrobiologie, 1985], the known biochemical processes allow conversion of raw materials into the final products to an even lesser extent. Considerable part of the carbohydrate substrate in these processes is converted into byproducts. The obtaining of hydrocarbons by means of biochemical methods is also well known since long ago [H. G. Schlegel. Allgemeine Mikrobiologie, 1985]. However, biogas obtained in fermentation of the waste of livestock farming or in decomposition of biomass by bacteria contains mainly methane. Production of hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds from synthesis gas, which in turn originates from biomass, also seems problematic. At present there is no industrial process for producing hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds using synthesis gas obtained from biomass. Synthesis gas obtained from coal, petroleum and natural gas is used industrially for producing oxygen-containing compounds [Reaction of hydroformylation, Kirk-Othmer Encyclopaedia, 3 rd  edition, v. 19, N.Y., 1982]. These processes are widely used by the industry for producing aldehydes, alcohols and many other oxygen-containing compounds originating from said materials. Methods for producing hydrocarbons from synthesis gas are also well known and used industrially [Fisher-Tropsch reaction, Kirk-Othmer Encyclopaedia, 3 rd  edition, v. 19, N.Y., 1982]. However nothing is known about using synthesis gas obtained from biological raw materials in these processes. 
     There are various methods for intensifying the production of ethyl alcohol, such as by introducing new types of microorganisms, characterized by a higher speed of fermentation and wider range of utilization of the carbohydrates substrates, by using continuous processes of fermentation or processes of cell immobilizing, or by effective processing of new and traditional types of raw material, providing widening of the range of the raw materials and deeper assimilation of the raw-material components. The productivity of the fermentation process in these methods can reach up to 10-15 litres of ethanol per cubic meter of the fermentor volume per hour, and specific speed of fermentation can reach up to 2.5-3.0 litres of ethanol per 1 gram of the yeast biomass per hour, with a yield of ethanol from the fermented carbohydrates in terms of weight of up to 49-50% (the theoretic value is 51%). 
     The prior art discloses a method for preparation of the grain starch-containing raw material for alcohol fermentation (RU 2145354, C12P7/06, 1998). The method includes cleaning of the grain from admixtures, mixing with water, thermal treatment, adding of enzymes, acid, and saccharification. After cleaning the grain is divided into the floury kernel and husk. Further processing of the raw material is carried out in two streams: the floury kernel is mixed with water to reach 19-21% mass part of humidity and treated thermally by extrusion. Then, after mixing with water, amylolytic enzymes and acid are added in an amount providing optimal pH value for the particular enzyme used. This is followed by saccharification, after which the husk is mixed with water to 21-23% of the mass water content and at least 2% by mass of alkali is added. The material is then treated thermally with addition of the acid in an amount providing the optimum pH value for the specific enzyme used. Then the cellulolytic enzymes are added and saccharification is carried out. Thereafter, both streams are brought together and directed to the fermentation. 
     There is a known method for producing ethyl alcohol from grain raw material (RU 2127760, C12P7/06, 1997). The method specifies the following steps: the grain is cleaned of husk, crushed, mixed with the liquid fraction, treated thermally, then the amylolytic enzymes carrying out the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch are added, the mass is sterilized, cooled down, enzymatic complex is added, followed by saccharification and cooling down to the fermentation temperature. The obtained wort-mash is distilled to obtain ethyl alcohol and distillery dreg. The total amount of the distillery dreg obtained is divided into two streams, one of which is further separated into two streams, one of which is re-directed to the stage of thermal processing of the grain separated from husk, where it is used as a liquid phase in the mixture with water; the other stream, after 15-16 hours after the start of fermentation, is directed to each of the fermentors fermenting the mass at the fermentation stage in separate streams in the amount of 15-20% of the volume of the fermenting medium. The remaining stream of the distillery dreg is taken out of the process in the mixture with the separated husk for using as a fodder product. 
     Disadvantages of the above-described methods are their low specific speed of fermentation (1.5-2.0 l/kg*h) and low C 3 -C 5  alcohols yield. C 3 -C 5  alcohols (fusel oil) are by-product of ethanol production from the plant raw material. The yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols in the production of ethanol by known methods is 0.2-0.6% of ethanol. In the production of a food-grade ethanol C 3 -C 5  alcohols are an unwanted admixture and should be thoroughly removed by rectification and purification. All technologic means in the process of a food-grade ethanol production, starting from the raw material preparation and finishing with the rectification, aim at minimizing the formation of fusel oil or at its maximum removal. 
     Collecting and storing fusel oil for the subsequent qualified processing and using is non-expedient due to its low yield. Modern methods for utilization of fusel oil propose either its incineration in a burner in admixture with fuel oil (Klimovski D. I, Smirnov V. N. “Alcohol Technology, Moscow, 1967) or using fusel oil as a raw material for producing isoamyl alcohol by distillation in a rectification unit (Russian patent RU 2109724, CO7C 31/125, 1996). Recently, the methods for producing fuel-grade ethanol from carbohydrates of plant origin have gained a great importance. There are different known methods for using the products of fermentation of carbohydrate substrates of plant origin: ethyl alcohol and C 3 -C 5  alcohols as a motor fuel or components of motor fuels for internal combustion engines. In this case ethyl alcohol is mainly used as a fuel component, while C 3 -C 5  alcohols are used as an octane-boosting additive for the fuel, or as a component in chemical synthesis for obtaining diesel fuel (Russian Patent 2155793, C10L1/18, 2000 “High octane additive for obtaining automotive gasoline”, Russian Patent RU 2106391, C10L 1/18, 1995 “Composition of hydrocarbon fuel”). 
     In the light of the above, ethyl alcohol production with an increased yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols would offer a possibility to widen the range of various types of motor fuels produced by processing “green” carbohydrate raw material. The total yield of fusel oil obtained in fermentation depends on the quality of carbohydrate substrate and the method of fermentation and is generally 0.2-0.6% of absolute ethyl alcohol. 
     SUMMARY OF INVENTION 
     We have developed a new method for obtaining hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds from biomass or products originating from biomass. The process is carried out in several steps and includes also biosynthesis of methane, carbon dioxide, acetaldehyde, acetone, lower C 1 -C 5  alcohols, and glycerine for producing unsaturated hydrocarbons from said alcohols, obtaining of synthesis gas, including using methane and carbon dioxide, interaction of unsaturated hydrocarbons with synthesis gas, condensation of the obtained aldehydes, hydrogenation of the obtained unsaturated aldehydes into alcohols, and converting saturated alcohols into saturated hydrocarbons. Besides that, the aldehydes can be used for obtaining acids, which are then converted into esters. The aldehydes can also be used for the synthesis of acetals. The alcohols can also be converted into ethers. Moreover, C 1 -C 5  alcohols and glycerine obtained in biosynthesis can first be converted into aldehydes, which are then condensed into higher unsaturated aldehydes, which in turn are hydrogenated into higher saturated alcohols. 
     The present invention relates to biochemical and chemical industry and can be used in the methods for fermenting carbohydrate substrates of plant origin for producing C 1 -C 5  alcohols, and for synthesis of higher alcohols, other oxygen-containing compounds and hydrocarbons as well as for the production of motor fuel components from biomass. Since C 6  and higher alcohols, ethers, acetals, and higher hydrocarbons are not obtainable by a direct biochemical route, it is proposed to synthesize these using known chemical reactions, wherein the source raw materials for said synthesis are:
         Synthesis gas produced from carbon dioxide obtained in biomass fermentation and from methane obtained in fermentation of the amino acids-containing distillery dreg after extraction of alcohol, and/or from various products and wastes obtained in biomass processing, including processing of wood, production of grain, or production of vegetable oils;   C 1 -C 5  alcohols produced by the inventive method using amino acids as a biocatalyst at the fermentation stage. The amino acids include leucine, isoleucine, valine, or a mixture of amino acids extracted from the yeast autolysate after separation of asparagine and ammonium;   Glycerine produced by the inventive method and/or by saponification of fats. It is proposed to use the glycerine for producing higher hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds to increase the extent of utilization of the renewable raw material, including for the purpose of motor fuel production;   Acetaldehyde and acetone produced by the inventive method.       

     It is proposed to use carbon dioxide or a mixture of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the processes of alcohol oxidation into aldehydes and aldehydes into fatty acids. At the stage of aldehydes condensation and to increase the yield of the higher hydrocarbons we propose to use besides the aldehydes obtained from alcohols the furfural obtained by hydrolysis of the pentosane-containing raw material. At the stage of etherification and to increase the yield of higher esters we propose to use along with the fatty acids, obtained from aldehydes, C 2 -C 6  fatty acids produced by biosynthesis, as well as the acids obtained in the saponification of fats and extracted from the tall oil. To increase the yield of higher esters we also propose to use terpenes at the etherification stage. 
     To increase the extent of the biomass conversion in the synthesis of hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds we propose to produce methanol using carbon dioxide obtained in the enzymatic processing of biomass or a mixture of carbon dioxide and hydrogen. Methanol obtained from carbon dioxide is then directed to the production of higher hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds. 
     To increase the extent of the biomass conversion in the synthesis of hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds it is proposed to use carbon dioxide obtained in the enzymatic processing of biomass. Besides carbon dioxide the said carbon oxide production can use wastes of the grain production, wood processing, turf, and lignin obtained in hydrolysis of the cellulose-containing raw material. 
     Production of synthesis gas can use as a raw material wastes of the production of grain, vegetable oils, wastes of wood processing, including pulp and wood coal, as well as by-products and wastes obtained in C 1 -C 5  alcohols biosynthesis, biosynthesis of glycerine, acetaldehyde, acetone, C 2 -C 6  acids, and by-products obtained in the chemical processing of the aforesaid oxygen-containing compounds. The following can be used for producing synthesis gas: gaseous and liquid products obtained in biomass pyrolysis, furfural, turpentine, colophony, tall oil, fusel oil, vegetable oils, and wastes obtained in the processing of said products. 
     It is also proposed to use carbon oxide obtained by the inventive method from the stage of fermentation, or from various types of biomass, and hydrogen, obtained from water by known methods, for the production of synthesis gas. 
     It is proposed to use synthesis gas produced by the inventive method for obtaining hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds by the Fisher-Tropsch method and by methods based on hydroformylation. 
     Of course, the inventive method for producing hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds from biomass or products originating from biomass allows using some source compounds of non-biologic origin. For example, in the production of synthesis gas along with carbon dioxide obtained in biosynthesis can be used hydrogen originating from petroleum, natural gas or coal. However the greatest effect is achieved when the source compounds are substances originating from renewable raw material. This is a possibility to obtain products needed for vital activities of humans from the raw materials currently not used to a full extent, but continuously reproduced by nature in contrast to petroleum, gas and coal, the reserves of which decrease continuously. 
     The present invention aims at solving the following problems:
         To increase the yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols;   To increase the specific speed of carbohydrate substrates fermentation;   To utilize the protein-containing waste of the alcohol production;   To produce higher oxygen-containing hydrocarbons and non oxygen-containing hydrocarbons, including those having C 4  and more carbon atoms in the molecule, from biomass and using the raw material obtained by biochemical methods;   To utilize in the said production carbon dioxide obtained in biosynthesis of lower alcohols, acids and hydrocarbons; glycerine obtained in saponification of fats; furfural obtained in hydrolysis of the pentosane-containing raw material; fatty acids obtained in biosynthesis, fat saponification and extracted from tall oil, resin and gases obtained in pyrolysis of wood;   To increase the rate of direct utilization of biomass for synthesis of higher alcohols, other oxygen-containing compounds, and higher hydrocarbons for motor fuel production from biomass.       

    
    
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     The inventive method for fermentation of carbohydrate substrates allows to increase the yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols to a level of 0.65-3.1% of ethyl alcohol with a simultaneous increase of the specific speed of fermentation of carbohydrate substrates to 4.0 l/kg*h. This is accomplished as follows. 
     While carrying out the alcohol fermentation it is necessary to add to the carbohydrate substrate the sources of mineral nutrition, i.e. nitrogen-containing and phosphorus-containing salts. These additives are necessary elements of the yeast nutrition and take part in the build-up of the biomass&#39; cells growing in the course of fermentation. 
     Conventionally, the concentration of nitrogen in the substrate is from 50 to 600 mg/l and depends on concentration of carbohydrates. In the prior art, mineral salts such as ammonium sulphate, ammophos, or urea are used as the nitrogen nutrition of the yeast for carrying out the alcohol fermentation. 
     The present inventors have found that the yeast assimilates nitrogen of amino acids faster than nitrogen of mineral salts, which determines rapid development of the yeast culture and high speed of the alcohol fermentation. 
     The inventive method for fermentation of carbohydrate substrates of plant origin is characterized in that the amino acids leucine, isoleucine or valine, or a mixture thereof is used as a nitrogen-containing component for the preparation of the carbohydrate substrate in an amount providing a content of the amino nitrogen in the substrate of 120-420 mg/l. The method is further characterized by subsequent fermentation of the carbohydrates of the substrate with a specific speed of alcohol fermentation of up to 4.0 l/kg/hour and a yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols in an amount of from 0.65% to 3.1% of ethyl alcohol. The carbohydrate substrate used is beet or cane molasses, acid or enzymatic hydrolysate of starch-containing or cellulose-containing plant materials. 
     The alcohol yeast, obtained in the fermentation of the molasses&#39; carbohydrates, is condensed to a dry substance content of 5-10%, washed with water during the process of condensation and treated by autolysis at 45-55° C. during 24-48 hours. The obtained autolysate with amino nitrogen content of 3000-8000 mg/l containing the amino acids valine, leucine and isoleucine is used as a nitrogen nutrition source for the yeast for fermenting the carbohydrate substrates. 
     Suspended substances of the distillery dreg, after extraction of alcohol, obtained in the fermentation of starch-containing plant materials can be condensed to a dry substance content of 5-10%, followed either by enzymatic hydrolysis of proteins of the distillery dreg free of alcohol at pH=2-pH=8 and a temperature of 30-60° C. using proteolytic enzymatic preparations, such as proteases, including exopeptidases: 
     aminopeptide-aminoacide hydrolases, carboxypeptide-aminoacidohydrolases; and endopeptidases: dipeptidhydrolases and peptide-peptidehydrolases, or by acid hydrolysis of proteins of the distillery dreg free of alcohol at 40-90° C. using 0.2-0.5% sulphuric or hydrochloric acid. The amino-acid hydrolysate obtained containing amino-acids valine, leucine and isoleucine with amino nitrogen content of 2000-6000 mg/l can then be used as nitrogen nutrition of the yeast in the fermentation of carbohydrate substrates. 
     Alternatively, combined acid hydrolysis of the cellulose-containing plant material and of the microorganisms&#39; biomass in the ratio of cellulose to biomass of 20:1-100:1 can be carried out. The obtained hydrolysate containing 3-20% of carbohydrates and 50-600 mg/l of amino nitrogen is used for the alcohol fermentation of carbohydrates. 
     Water-soluble substances of the distillery dreg, after extraction of alcohol, can be used for the aerobic cultivation of the yeast; the obtained yeast is condensed to a dry substance content of 5-10% and treated by autolysis at 45-55° C. during 24-48 hours. The obtained autolysate containing the amino acids valine, leucine and isoleucine with an amino-nitrogen concentration of 3000-8000 mg/is used as nitrogen nutrition of the yeast in the fermentation of carbohydrate substrates. 
     The amino acid autolysate of the yeast, containing the amino acids valine, leucine, and isoleucine in an amount providing a content of amino nitrogen in the carbohydrate substrate of from 120 to 420 mg/l, which autolysate has been obtained in the aerobic cultivation of the yeast with pentose-containing distillery dreg, after extraclion of alcohol, can be used as nitrogen nutrition in the fermenting of carbohydrate substrates. Pentose-containing distillery dreg, after extraction of alcohol, can be used for the aerobic cultivation of the yeast; the obtained yeast is condensed to a dry substance content of 5-10%, washed with water during the condensation and treated by autolysis at 45-55° C. during 24-48 hours. The autolysate thus obtained, containing 3000-8000 mg/l of amino nitrogen, is used as nitrogen nutrition of the yeast in the fermentation of carbohydrate substrates. 
     After extraction of asparagine and ammonium salts, the autolysate of the yeast protein, the acid or enzymatic hydrolysates of the protein of the distillery dreg are used as nitrogen nutrition in the fermentation of the carbohydrate substrates. 
     Formation of C 3 -C 5  alcohols is a result of active functioning of the process of deamination of amino acids in the yeast cells with formation of free ammonia. We have demonstrated that formation of C 3 -C 5  alcohols in the process of alcohol fermentation is determined by assimilation of nitrogen from the amino acids valine, leucine, and isoleucine by the growing cells. The yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols reached 3.1% of ethanol when pure valine, isoleucine, and leucine were the sole source of nitrogen nutrition of the yeast in the inventive fermentation process. Moreover, the maximum formation of C 3 -C 5  alcohols in the inventive process of alcohol fermentation occurred at pH=6.0 of the medium and at 38° C. (standard conditions of alcohol fermentation pH 4.5-5.5; temperature 28-34° C.). 
     It has been found that presence in the substrate of asparagine and ammonium ions, in addition to the amino acids valine, leucine, and isoleucine, inhibits formation of C 3 -C 5  alcohols. Other amino acids do not inhibit the process of C 3 -C 5  alcohols formation. The inhibition constant for the system leucine-ammonium sulphate is 750 mg/l, leucine-asparagine 730 mg/l, valine-asparagine 650 mg/l. 
     When amino acid autolysate of the yeast was used, the maximum yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols reached 1.1-2.1% of ethanol, and when the amino acid protein hydrolysate of the distiller&#39;s grains were used, the maximum yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols was 0.65-0.8% of ethanol. The relatively low yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols, when using the yeast autolysate or distillery dreg protein hydrolysate, is a result of the presence of asparagine. 
     Wastes of the production of ethyl alcohol from carbohydrate substrates are: biomass of the alcohol yeast, which is increased during the process of fermentation; non-fermentable soluble organic components of the substrate, such as pentose sugar, organic acids, hexose and ethanol residues; non-soluble protein components of grain, etc. 
     There are known methods for utilisation of said wastes for producing baking yeast, fodder protein and amino acid products. 
     Biomass of the alcohol yeast or the yeast obtained in aerobic cultivation using non-fermentable organic components of the substrate can be used for obtaining amino acids by known methods of autolysis. Non-soluble protein waste of the ethyl alcohol production can be also used for obtaining amino acids by known methods of enzymatic or acid hydrolysis of protein. 
     Extraction of ammonia and asparagine from the amino acid mixture by known methods of ion exchange can be used in order to increase the yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols in terms of ethanol, when using yeast autolysate or hydrolysate, and acid or enzymatic hydrolysate of the distillery dreg as nitrogen nutrition of the yeast in the process of carbohydrate substrates fermentation. 
     The total content of C 3 -C 5  alcohols increases from 0.8-2.1% to 2.2-2.95% of ethanol when yeast autolysate free of ammonia and asparagines, or yeast hydrolysate and acid or enzymatic hydrolysate of the distillery dreg protein is used as nitrogen nutrition in the process of carbohydrate substrates fermentation in the production of ethanol. 
     In the processes of acetone and glycerine biosynthesis it is proposed to use a method similar to that used according to the invention in the biosynthesis of ethanol to increase the yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols, that is to use at the stage of carbohydrate substrate preparation as a nitrogen-containing component the amino acids leucine, isoleucine, valine or mixtures of said acids, including those extracted from the yeast or distillery dreg protein. 
     To increase the extent of biomass conversion in the synthesis of hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds it is proposed to use for methane biosynthesis distillery dreg, after extraction of alcohol, containing excess amino acids produced in the autolysis or hydrolysis of the yeast. Methane should be obtained under anaerobe conditions using methane-producing bacteria. 
     To increase the yield of C 1 -C 5  alcohols it is proposed to process glycerine, obtained in the biosynthesis and from the saponification of fats, into n-propanol. To increase the yield of higher alcohols it is proposede to use vegetable and animal fats in addition to glycerine obtained as a result of biosynthesis in the processing of said glycerine into n-propanol by hydrogenation. The process of hydrogenation of the mixture of glycerine and vegetable and/or animal fats into a mixture of n-propyl alcohol, higher C 6 -C 20  alcohols and C 6  and higher hydrocarbons can be performed in the presence of copper-chromium, zinc-chromium, nickel-chromium catalysts at 300±100° C. and a pressure of 10-30 MPa by hydrogen obtained from biomass. This process can be also carried out in the presence of catalysts comprising precious metals, such as Pt, Pd, Re, Ru, Rh at 200±50° C. and a pressure of 5-20 MPa. 
     It is proposed to condensate C 1 -C 5  alcohols produced by the inventive method into higher alcohols, esters and acids. The condensation can be carried out at a temperature of 100-400° C. and a pressure of 0.1-10 MPa in the presence of alcoholates of alkali metals or caustic alkali. 
     To increase the extent of biomass conversion in the synthesis of hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds it is proposed to use carbon dioxide, obtained in the enzymatic processing of biomass or a mixture of carbon dioxide and hydrogen, for producing methanol. It is also proposed to use hydrogen obtained from biomass and/or from the water obtained in the processing of alcohols obtained in biosynthesis. Water conversion can be carried out by means of known methods. Synthesis of methanol using the raw materials originating from biomass can be carried out at a temperature of 350-450° C. in the presence of ZnO—Cr 2 O 3  catalyst or at a pressure 4-6 MPa and a temperature of 220-280° C. in the presence of CuO—ZnO—Al 2 O 3  (Cr 2 O 3 ). Methanol obtained from carbon dioxide is then directed to the processes for production of higher hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds. 
     To increase the extent of biomass conversion in the synthesis of hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds we propose to use carbon dioxide obtained in the enzymatic processing of biomass for producing carbon oxide. Besides carbon dioxide aforesaid production can use gaseous products of biomass pyrolysis including wood, lignin, turf, solid waste of grain production and wood processing, and lignin obtained in the hydrolysis of cellulose-containing raw material. This process can be carried out in industrial gas generators with boiling or pseudo-liquefied layer of solid particles or in gas generators of other types. The source gas is a mixture of carbon dioxide and oxygen. The reaction temperature is 1000-1500° C. If needed the process of carbon dioxide production can be carried out at a pressure 2-6 MPa. Carbon oxide obtained from the biologic raw material is subsequently mixed with hydrogen obtained from biomass and/or with hydrogen obtained from the water obtained in dehydration of alcohols obtained in biosynthesis or from the water obtained in condensation of aldehydes obtained from said alcohols. Conversion of the water is carried out by known methods. This gas mixture is then used for synthesis of hydrocarbons, including higher alcohols, and other oxygen-containing compounds. 
     For the oxidation of alcohols into aldehydes it is proposed to use carbon dioxide obtained in the process of biosynthesis. Oxidation of alcohols into aldehydes is carried out at a temperature of 450-650° C. and a pressure of 0.05 MPa in the presence of a silver catalyst Ag—Al 2 O 3 . In contrast to the known processes the steam-gaseous mixture of C 1 -C 5  alcohols and carbon dioxide heated to 180-200° C. is directed to the oxidation. The use of this mixture gives a possibility to use for the oxidation oxygen or a mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide. We propose to carry out the condensation of aldehydes, obtained from lower alcohols, with furfural in the alkali medium at 0-10° C. It is further proposed to hydrogenate unsaturated aldehydes obtained in croton condensation of aldehydes, which are obtained in oxidation of lower C 1 -C 5  alcohols, and also unsaturated aldehydes, obtained in condensation of furfural with lower C 1 -C 5  aldehydes, by hydrogen obtained from biomass and/or by hydrogen obtained from the water obtained in oxidation of alcohols or in condensation of aldehydes. Conversion of the water is carried out by known methods. 
     For oxidation of aldehydes into fatty acids we propose to use carbon dioxide obtained in biosynthesis. Oxidation of aldehydes into fatty acids is carried out at a temperature of 50-250° C. and a pressure of 0.05-0.5 MPa in the presence of a manganese acetate catalyst. In contrast to the known methods the steam-gas mixture of aldehydes and carbon dioxide heated to 50-150° C. is supplied to the oxidation. Utilization of said mixture gives a possibility to use for the oxidation oxygen or a mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide. For etherification of the fatty acids obtained by the inventive method we propose to use a mixture of C 1 -C 5  alcohols produced by the inventive method, or to use a mixture of unsaturated C 2 -C 5  hydrocarbons obtained from said alcohols. Furthermore, to increase the yield of higher esters we propose to use at the stage of etherification fatty acids, obtained by the inventive method, C 2 -C 6  fatty acids obtained by biosynthesis, and also acids obtained in the saponification of the fats and extracted from tall oil. We propose to perform the etherification in the gas phase at a temperature of 100-200° C. and a pressure of 0.5-2.5 MPa in the presence of sulphocationite catalyst or in the liquid phase at a temperature of 50-200° C. and a pressure of 0.1-0.5 MPa in the presence of non-organic acids as a catalyst. 
     For obtaining acetals and ketals it is proposed to use acetaldehyde, acetone, glycerine, and a mixture of C 3 -C 5  alcohols produced by the inventive method, acetaldehyde obtained in oxidation of ethanol produced by biochemical method, and formaldehyde obtained in oxidation of methanol synthesized from carbon dioxide produced by biochemical method. It is proposed to carry out the process of acetals and ketals production in the liquid phase at a temperature of 0-50° C. and a pressure of 0.1-0.5 MPa using hydrochloric or sulphuric acids or salts of these acids as a catalyst. 
     For producing synthesis gas wastes of the grain production, vegetable oils, wood processing, including pulp production and production of wood coal, and also byproducts and wastes obtained in biosynthesis of C 1 -C 5  alcohols, glycerine, acetaldehyde, acetone, C 2 -C 6  acids, and by-products and wastes obtained in chemical processing of the aforesaid oxygen-containing compounds can be used. For the production of synthesis gas it is also proposed to use biogas obtained in the fermentation of the various types of biomass and carbon dioxide obtained at the fermentation stage of the same production or carbon dioxide obtained in the biosynthesis of other bioproducts. For producing synthesis gas, besides carbon dioxide obtained in biosynthesis, it is also possible to use the gases and resins obtained in the pyrolysis of wood, furfural, turpentine, colophony, tall oil, fusel oils, vegetable oils and wastes of the production of aforesaid products. The process of synthesis gas production is carried out at a temperature of 800-1100° C. and a pressure of 0.1-3 MPa in the presence of an Al 2 O 3  supported NiO catalyst or at 1450-1550° C. and a pressure of 2-10 MPa without a catalyst. It is proposed to use synthesis gas obtained by the inventive method for producing hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds by the Fisher-Tropsch method and by processes based on the reaction of hydroformylation. 
     It is proposed to carry out the production of hydrocarbons by the Fisher-Tropsch method from synthesis gas, obtained by the inventive method, at a temperature of 200-350° C. and a pressure of 2.0-2.5 MPa in the presence of ferrous catalyst promoted by oxides of alkali metals or at 170-200° C. and a pressure of 0.1-1.0 MPa in the presence of cobalt-thorium-magnesium catalyst. The process of production of the oxygen-containing compounds by the Fisher-Tropsch method from synthesis gas obtained by our inventive method should be carried out at a temperature of 180-250° C. and a pressure of 1.0-3.5 MPa in the presence of a ferrous-copper catalyst promoted by oxides of aluminium, calcium, zinc, magnesium, and alkaline agents, such as compounds of alkaline metals, which when dissolved in water produce an alkaline reaction. 
     For producing unsaturated hydrocarbons, which are subsequently directed to hydroformylation or alkylation, it is proposed to dehydrate the mixture of C 2 -C 5  alcohols, obtained in biosynthesis, and/or glycerine, as well as the glycerine obtained by saponification of fats. Dehydration is carried out at a temperature of 200-400° C. and a pressure of 0.1-3 MPa in the presence of an Al 2 O 3  catalyst. The mixture of alcohols and/or glycerine can be also dehydrated by heating with sulphuric acid. 
     It is proposed to alkylate unsaturated hydrocarbons obtained in dehydration of lower C 2 -C 5  alcohols by using isobutane and isopentane obtained from the corresponding iso-alcohols, and also using terpenes, which have previously been heated to a temperature of 200±50° C. The result of alkylation, which is carried out at 0-10° and a pressure of 0.5-1 MPa in the presence of 90-100% sulphuric acid as a catalyst, is the obtaining of the mixture of C 6 -C 15  hydrocarbons. The alkylation can be also carried out in the presence of an AlCl 3  catalyst at a temperature of 50-60° C. and a pressure of 1-2 MPa.

     It is proposed to hydrogenate the aldehydes, obtained in hydroformylation of unsaturated hydrocarbons, and/or acrolein, obtained in dehydration of glycerine into saturated alcohols, by hydrogen obtained from biomass and/or by hydrogen produced from the water obtained in dehydration of alcohols obtained from biosynthesis. Conversion of the water is carried out by known methods. It is proposed to hydrogenate saturated and unsaturated aldehydes into saturated alcohols at a temperature of 50-150° C. and a pressure of 1-2 MPa in the presence of an Al 2 O 3  supported NiO catalyst or at a temperature of 200-250° C. and a pressure of 5-20 MPa in the presence of a CuO—Cr 2 O 3  catalyst. 
     Thus, the inventive method for production of higher hydrocarbons, including oxygen-containing compounds, from biomass offers a solution to the following problems:
         To produce higher oxygen-containing compounds and/or non oxygen-containing hydrocarbons, including those having four and more carbon atoms in the molecule, from biomass using the raw material obtained by biochemical methods;   To considerably increase the yield of C 3 -C 5  alcohols in the process of their biosynthesis by fermenting the carbohydrate substrates;   To increase by 1.5-2.0 times the productivity of the fermentation stage for the technology of C 1 -C 5  alcohols production;   To utilize the protein-containing waste and other bio components of the distillery dreg after extraction of alcohol within the frame of the technology for C 1 -C 5  alcohols production, including for the purpose of methane production;   To utilize in the production of hydrocarbons, including oxygen-containing compounds, carbon dioxide obtained in the biosynthesis of C 1 -C 5  alcohols, and also carbon dioxide obtained in the biosynthesis of other lower hydrocarbons;   To utilize in the production of hydrocarbons, including oxygen-containing compounds, fats, glycerine obtained in the saponification of fats, furfural obtained in hydrolysis of pentosane-containing raw material, C 2 -C 6  fatty acids obtained by biosynthesis, acids obtained in the saponification of fats and extracted from tall oil, resins, turpentine, colophony and tall oil obtained in the wood processing;   To increase the rate of the direct use of biomass for synthesis of higher alcohols and other oxygen-containing compounds, and also higher hydrocarbons;   To use hydrocarbons, including oxygen-containing compounds, obtained from biomass by the inventive method as a component for motor fuels.

     EXAMPLE 11 
     Chopped spruce wood (cellulose-containing plant material) was used together with the yeast biomass in a ratio of 50:1 and treated by acid hydrolysis at a temperature of 180° C., with a sulphuric acid concentration of 0.5%, a ratio of water to wood of 12:1, and for a period of time of 1.5 hours.

The yield of the yeast biomass in terms of the consumed wood was 48 g/kg. The obtained yeast biomass was used for the acid hydrolysis of the wood. 
     Carbon dioxide obtained in the biosynthesis of alcohols was mixed with oxygen and directed to a gas generator. Granulated lignin obtained in the hydrolysis of wood was supplied to the same gas generator simultaneously with the source gas. During the granulation lignin was added with resin, obtained in the pyrolysis of wood, colophony, and wastes obtained in the processing of turpentine, tall oil, fusel and vegetable oils. The process of carbon oxide production was carried out at a temperature of 1000-1500° C.

     Ethanol, C 3 -C 5  alcohols and other volatile components were distilled from the after-fermentation culture liquid (mash). Nitrogen and phosphorus mineral salts were added to the alcohol-free mash (distillery dreg) and aerobic cultivation of the yeast  Candida tropicalis  was carried out. As a result of the cultivation a yeast suspension having a biomass concentration of 15 g/l was obtained. The yeast was separated from the culture liquid by filtration, washed with water and treated by autolysis, and a biomass suspension with a dry substance concentration of 6% was prepared.

     EXAMPLE 13 
     Crushed wheat grain was mixed with water in the ratio of 1:3.5. Enzymatic hydrolysis of the grain starch was carried out using In the first stage thermostable amylase Zymajunt-340C (pH 6.5, 90° C., consumption 0.25 ml per 1 kg of the grain starch) and In the second stage glucoamylase Glucozym L-400C (pH 5.0; 60° C.; consumption 0.8 ml per 1 kg of the grain starch). Industrial enzymes produced by Ende Industries Inc., USA have been used. As a result of the enzymatic hydrolysis the carbohydrate concentration in the substrate reached 16%. To the substrate were then added superphosphate in an amount providing a P 2 O 5  content of 200 mg/l, amino acid leucine in the amount of 2000 mg/l and amino acid valine in the amount 1500 mg/l (amino nitrogen content of 390 mg/l). The yeast starter biomass  S. cerevisiae  was added to the substrate in an amount of 5 g/l. The fermentation was carried out at a temperature of 38° C. and pH=6.0. The speed of fermentation was 3.5 l/g*h, ethanol concentration at the end of the fermentation was 8.8% vol., isopentanol concentration 1250 mg/l, and isobutanol concentration 910 mg/l. Total content of C 4 -C 5  alcohols was 2.95% of the volume of ethanol. Ethanol, C 3 -C 5  alcohols and other volatile components were distilled off from the after-fermentation culture liquid (mash). 
     Carbon dioxide obtained in the biosynthesis of alcohols was mixed with methane obtained in biosynthesis and water steam, and directed to the reactor for producing synthesis gas. Conversion of the source mixture was carried out in the presence of a NiO—Al 2 O 3  catalyst at 830-850° C. The gas mixture thus obtained had the following composition: CO 2 —4.8% vol.; CO—24.7% vol.; H 2 —68.0% vol.; CH 4 —2.5% vol. Then the converted gas was cooled down, compressed to 5 MPa and directed to methanol synthesis. Methanol synthesis was carried out at 5 MPa and a temperature of 230-260° C. in the presence of CuO—ZnO—Al 2 O 3  (Cr 2 O 3 ) catalyst. Methanol obtained from carbon dioxide was then directed to the processes for production of higher hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds. 
     In another process for obtaining synthesis gas we used, besides carbon dioxide obtained in biosynthesis, gases and resins obtained in pyrolysis of wood, wastes of furfural, turpentine, colophony, and fusel oil. The process for obtaining synthesis gas was carried out at a temperature of 800-1100° C. and a pressure of 0.1-3 MPa in the presence of a Al 2 O 3  supported NiO catalyst. A gas mixture of the following composition was thus obtained: CO 2 —4.2-4.6% vol.; CO—41.5-32.7% vol.; H 2 —44.8-53.3% vol.; CH 4 —5.5-5.7% vol.; N 2 —3.3-4.7% vol. Then the converted gas was cooled down and directed to the production of hydrocarbons by the Fisher-Tropsch method. The process was carried out as follows. Synthesis gas obtained by the inventive method and having the ratio of the components CO:H 2 =1:1.1-1.7 at 220-330° C. and a pressure 2.3-2.5 MPa was directed through the reactor filled with ferrous alloy promoted by oxides (Al 2 O 3 , K 2 O, MgO) catalyst. The yield of the products per 1 m 3  was 170-180 g. The obtained product was composed of olefins and paraffins, distillation range of the liquid was 30-400° C., the liquid contained 96% of non oxygen-containing hydrocarbons and 4% of the oxygen-containing compounds, 50% of which were C 4  and higher alcohols. 
     The process can also be carried out at a temperature of 170-200° C. and a pressure of 0.1-1.0 MPa in the presence of cobalt-thorium-magnesium catalyst. These process parameters allow using synthesis gas obtained by the inventive method and having a ratio of the components CO:H 2 =1:1.5. The yield of the products in the process is 170-175 g per 1 m 3 . The product obtained contained olefins and paraffins, the liquid was distilling in the interval 30-400° C., 99% of the liquid were non oxygencontaining hydrocarbons and 1% oxygen-containing compounds, 70% of which were C 1 -C 10  alcohols. 
     For producing synthesis gas we used, besides carbon dioxide obtained in biosynthesis, natural gas comprising, mainly, methane. Conversion of the source mixture is carried out in the presence of NiO—Al 2 O 3  catalyst at 830-850° C. Thus, a gas mixture similar in composition to the synthesis gas obtained in the conversion of the biologic raw material was obtained, that is: CO 2 —4.5% vol.; CO—22.9% vol.; H 2 —70.1% vol.; CH 4 —2.4% vol.; SO 2 +SO 3 —0.1% vol. However, presence of sulphur oxides in the mixture requires additional purification of the synthesis gas before it is supplied to the catalyst. After sulphur oxides have been extracted from the gas mixture the converted gas was compressed by a compressor to 5 MPa and directed to methanol synthesis.

Methanol obtained from biochemical carbon dioxide was then directed to the synthesis of higher hydrocarbons and oxygen-containing compounds, including also etherifying of unsaturated and saturated C 8 -C 24  acids obtained in the saponification of fats and extracted from tall oil.

     Chopped potatoes were mixed with water in a ratio of 1:1. Enzymatic hydrolysis of the potatoe starch was accomplished using in the first stage thermostable amylase Zymajunt-340C (pH 6.5, 90° C., consumption 0.25 ml per 1 kg of the potatoes starch), and in the second stage glycoamylase Glucozym L-400C (pH 5.0, 60° C., consumption 0.8 ml per 1 kg of the potatoes starch).

The mixture of C 2 -C 5  alcohols obtained in the fermentation was dehydrated at 300±100° C. in the presence of Al 2 O 3  catalyst. The mixture of unsaturated C 2 -C 5  hydrocarbons obtained in the dehydration is mixed with synthesis gas, originating from biogas and having a ratio CO:H 2 =1:1, and then directed to the reactor containing cobalt catalyst modified by phosphorous compounds. Temperature in the reactor is 175±25° C. and a pressure of 7.5±2.5 MPa. As a result of the reaction of hydroformylation a mixture of C 3 -C 6  aldehydes is obtained. The mixture of C 3 -C 6  aldehydes is hydrogenated in the presence of Ni catalyst by the hydrogen produced from the renewable raw material into the mixture of C 3 -C 6  alcohols, which are then returned back to the stage of dehydration. 
     The process is repeated until C 8  aldehydes appear in the mixture of aldehydes. After C 8  aldehydes appear in the mixture of aldehydes the process can be carried out in two routes. In the first route C 8  aldehydes are extracted and condensed into unsaturated C 16  aldehydes and then hydrogenated to saturated C 16  alcohols, which, if it is needed, are further processed into saturated C 16  hydrocarbons. In the second route the extracted C 8  aldehydes can be directly hydrogenated in the presence of Ni catalyst by renewable hydrogen into a mixture of C 8  alcohols, which are then converted into the mixture of C 8  hydrocarbons.

After that glycerine was extracted from the after-fermentation culture liquid (mash) and mixed with glycerine obtained in the saponification of fats; the mixture obtained was dehydrated in the presence of Al 2 O 3  catalyst at 350±50° C. Acrolein obtained in dehydration of glycerine was directed to a reactor containing Ni catalyst and hydrogenated at 100±10° C. and a pressure of 1-2 MPa into n-propyl alcohol using hydrogen obtained from biomass and/or obtained in the fermentation of carbohydrate substrates and/or obtained from the water, obtained in the processing of alcohols obtained in biosynthesis. Conversion of the water was carried out by known methods. 
     N-propyl alcohol thus obtained was brought together with C 2 -C 5  alcohols obtained in biosynthesis; the mixture of lower C 2 -C 5  alcohols thus obtained was condensed to obtain a mixture of C 4 -C 15  alcohols, C 2 -C 5  fatty acids, and C 4 -C 10  esters. The process of condensation of the lower C 2 -C 5  alcohols was carried out at 150±50° C. and a pressure of 0.1-0.5 MPa in the presence of sodium alcoholates and Ni—Cr 2 O 3  as a catalyst.

Conversion of the water was carried out using known methods. Propionic aldehyde was extracted from the mixture obtained and can be further processed in two routes. The first route provides further condensing of propionic aldehyde into isohexene aldehyde with the subsequent hydrogenation in the presence of Ni catalyst at 150±10° C. and a pressure of 1-5 MPa into isohexanol by hydrogen obtained from biomass and/or obtained from the water obtained in dehydration of glycerine. Conversion of the water is carried out by known methods. 
     The second possibility is to condense propionic aldehyde with C 2 -C 5  alcohols, obtained in biosynthesis, into the corresponding propanals; or to condensate propionic aldehyde with n-propyl alcohol, obtained in hydrogenation of acroleine, wherein the ratio acrolein : propionic aldehyde by mole is 2:1, into dipropyl propanal. The latter is a good component for fuels for diesel and gas-turbine engines.

The speed of fermentation was 3.6 l/g*h, ethanol concentration at the end of fermentation was 8.7% vol., isopentanols concentration 920 mg/l, isobutanol concentration 480 mg/l, and the total content of C 3 -C 5  alcohols was 2.3% of the volume of ethanol. 
     Ethanol, C 3 -C 5  alcohols and other volatile components were distilled off from the after-fermentation culture liquid (mash). C 3 -C 5  alcohols and other volatile components can be further processed into higher hydrocarbons as described in the foregoing examples. Carbon dioxide obtained in the biosynthesis of alcohols was mixed with biogas, containing mainly methane, and with water steam and directed to the reactor for synthesis gas production. Conversion of the source mixture is carried out in the presence of NiO-Al 2 O 3  catalyst at a temperature of 830-850° C. Thus, a gas mixture of the following composition is obtained: CO 2 —4.8% vol; CO—24.7% vol.; H 2 —68.0% vol.; CH 4 —2.3% vol. Converted gas is then cooled down and compressed by the compressor to 5 MPa and directed to methanol synthesis. Methanol synthesis is carried out at 5 MPa and a temperature of 230-260° C. in the presence of CuO—ZnO—Al 2 O 3 (Cr   2 O 3 ). Methanol obtained from carbon dioxide was mixed with ethanol obtained in biosynthesis and the thus obtained mixture was oxidized at 450-550° C. in the presence of silver catalyst by the mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide, obtained in the biosynthesis of C 2 -C 5  alcohols, to obtain a mixture of acetaldehyde and formaldehyde. The mixture of acetaldehyde and formaldehyde was subsequently converted at 300-400° C. in the presence of Al 2 O 3  into acrolein. Acrolein was processed into higher hydrocarbons, including oxygen containing hydrocarbons, as described in the foregoing examples.

Conversion of the water is carried out by the conventional methods. Isobutane and isopentane thus obtained were mixed with unsaturated C 2 -C 5  hydrocarbons obtained in dehydration of the corresponding alcohols at 0-10° C. and a pressure of 0.5-1 MPa in the reactor containing, as a catalyst, sulphuric acid. As a result of the synthesis a mixture of saturated C 6 -C 10  hydrocarbons was obtained, which is a good component for gasoline fuels. 
     This alkylation process can also be carried out in the presence of AlCl 3  as a catalyst and a temperature of 50-60° C. and a pressure of 1-2 MPa. 
     Moreover, unsaturated C 2 -C 5  hydrocarbons obtained in dehydration of the corresponding C 2 -C 5  alcohols were mixed with terpenes, which were in beforehand heated in the presence of platinum to 200±50° C. As a result of alkylation, which was carried out at 0-10° C. and a pressure of 0.5-1 MPa using 90-100% sulphuric acid as a catalyst, a mixture of C 12 -C 15  hydrocarbons was obtained. This process of alkylation can also be performed in the presence of AlCl 3  used as a catalyst at 50-60° C. and a pressure 1-2 MPa. Higher C 12 -C 15  hydrocarbons obtained from terpenes and lower C 2 -C 5  alcohols were used as components of motor fuels. 
     EXAMPLE 34 
     Crushed corn grain was mixed with water heated up to 80° C. in ratio 1:10 by weight and was let to stand at this temperature for 10 minutes, after which the temperature was elevated to 100° C. and the mixture was let to stand for another 30 minutes. The substrate thus prepared is directed for sterilization in an autoclave at 150° C. for 60 minutes, after which the substrate is cooled down to 37° C. As a result of the overcooking of the flour the starch concentration in the substrate reached about 6%. To the substrate was added aminoacid hydrolysate, obtained in, the enzymatic hydrolysis of protein of the distillery dreg free of alcohol, which hydrolysate had previously been purified from ammonia by known methods of ion exchange, in the amount 100 ml/l (400 mg/l of amino nitrogen). After that starter bacteria biomass  Clostridium butylicum  and  Clostridium acetobutylicum  (in a ratio of 1:4) was introduced to the substrate in the concentration of 5 g/l. The fermentation was carried out at 37° C. and a pH=5.5. The speed of fermentation was 4.0 l/g*h, the concentration of alcohols at the end of fermentation was 2.05% vol., including 0.24% vol. of ethanol, 0.12% vol. of isopropanol, 0.03% vol. of isobutanol, 1.61% vol. of n-butanol, 0.05% vol. of isopenthanol, and concentration of acetone at the end of fermentation was 0.7% by volume. 
     The mixture of C 2 -C 5  alcohols extracted from the culture liquid obtained in the fermentation of the grain starch can be processed into higher hydrocarbons as described in the foregoing examples. Acetone that has been distilled off from the culture liquid was treated by aldol and croton condensation to obtain a mixture of diacetone alcohol, mesityl oxide, phorone, and mesitylene. Mesityl oxide and isophorone were extracted from the mixture obtained and hydrogenated in the presence of Ni catalyst at 150±10° C. and a pressure of 1-5 MPa into the corresponding C 6  and C 9  alcohols. 
     C 6  and C 9  alcohols, thus obtained, were brought together with diacetone alcohol and mesitylene and the obtained mixture was used as a component for gasoline. 
     Moreover, acetone distilled off from the culture liquid was condensed with glycerine, obtained in biosynthesis or in the saponification of fats, to produce acetone 1,2-glycerineketal (2,2-dimethyl-4-oxymethyl 1,3-dioxane). The latter was also used as a component for motor fuels. 
     Of course, the possible embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the demonstrated examples. These examples demonstrate only some of the possible routes of the inventive embodiments of the process of biomass processing, including biosynthesis of lower alcohols, for producing higher hydrocarbons, including oxygen-containing hydrocarbons.
