As of 2020, 139,753 tons/day of livestock manure is generated. Most of the livestock manure is made of compost(75.3%) and Liquor(11.7%) and is spread on farmland. The compost and Liquor of these livestock manure are the main causes of water pollution. Therefore, it is necessary to convert livestock manure into energy. For this reason, hydrothermal carbonization technology was applied to evaluate the physical and chemical properties. Among livestock manure, cow manure was used. Through hydrothermal carbonization, it was confirmed that the HHV (Kcal/kg) of 3,101 kcal/kg of raw material rises to more than about 3,800 kcal/kg at 220℃ or higher. This result was judged to be influenced by carbonization through a clear trend of decrease in O/C and H/C ratios. As a result, the value of Bio-SRF was evaluated through hydrothermal carbonization of cow manure, and All other items except for chlorine showed satisfactory results.
