Resumen: The conversion of organic waste into advanced fuels through hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is a promising route. However, for the commercialisation of HTL technology, treatment and valorisation of the generated aqueous by-product are required for its economic viability. This study investigates subcritical non-catalytic continuous wet air oxidation (WAO) for the treatment of the aqueous phase from hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL-AP) of sewage sludge. A custom-made tubular reactor was used at temperatures and residence times similar to the HTL process (300–350 ◦C; 6–50 min), with excess air equivalent to 1.5–2 times the oxygen demand. The WAO process removed up to 95.3 % of the chemical oxygen demand and 91.8 % of the total organic carbon, generating volatile fatty acids, mainly acetic acid, as intermediary compounds from the oxidation reactions, and CO2 and H2O from the pollutant’s complete degradation. The process effectively eliminated almost all of the organonitrogen compounds, generating NH4 +, which reached values of up to 97 % of the total nitrogen. Comprehensive molecular characterization performed by FT− Orbitrap MS analysis revealed that the main basic organonitrogen compounds in HTL-AP are distributed in the O1N1, N2, O1N2, N1 classes. For neutral to acidic organonitrogen species, O3N1 is the most representative chemical class. The energy consumption for heating the WAO reactor was up to 40 % lower using HTL-AP compared to blanks experiments. Despite good process water clean-up, autothermal operation was not achieved, and improvements in the reactor design are suggested.
