Improper management of dairy wastewater (acid whey) leads to water basin eutrophication and greenhouse gas emissions. We evaluated hydrothermal liquefaction as a means to sustainably manage and valorize acid whey wastes by converting them into biocrude oil and recovering nutrients in aqueous-phase byproducts. In a set of well-defined experiments, we studied the effects of reaction temperatures (280-360 °C), reaction times (7.5-37.5 min), feedstock pH values (2.5-8.5), and feedstock salt contents (0-2 wt ) on the energy recovered and the yields of products and elements. Response surface analysis showed that an alkaline feedstock pH (8.5) and a short reaction time (7.5 min) combined with a specific optimal reaction temperature for certain salt content in the feedstock were required to maximize biocrude energy recovery and nutrient recovery for a range of feedstock compositions. In general, 280-290 °C was optimal for salt contents ≤1.675 wt and 360 °C for salt contents 1.675-2 wt . Carbon and nitrogen were mostly distributed between biocrude and aqueous-phase products, added with distribution to the gas phase at higher temperatures. Partitioning of inorganics, for example, calcium and phosphorus, into aqueous-phase and solid hydro-char products depended on reaction conditions. This study provides new information for controlling target product composition as well as specifying desirable operating conditions for practical systems. © 2021 American Chemical Society.
