The agricultural production of energy crops is in competition to food production and discussed controversial. Therefore the academic and commercial research is focused on waste or residue biomass. A promising conversion technology for the production of liquid fuels from residue biomass is a combination of intermediate pyrolysis with integrated reforming, the Thermo -catalytic reforming (TCR). For this work bio-oil from digestate was produced by Thermo -catalytic reforming (TCR). The bio-oil was hydrogenated at temperatures of 230 C to 370 C and a pressure of 14 MPa. For hydrogenation an industrial NiMo-A1203 catalyst was used. The high quality of products form Thermo -catalytic reforming was already presented at EU BC&E 2014. Upgrading of the TCR bio-oil offers the option to meet high standards of common fuels.enconference paper
