Advances in the pyrolytic transformation of lignocellulosic biomass tophenol-enriched bio-oil
Journal Title: Energy Environmental Protection - Year 2023, Vol 37, Issue 2
Abstract
With the increasing depletion of petrochemical resources and the environmental pollution caused by their consumption, the development and utilization of renewable resources have attracted extensive attention. Agroforestry biomass (ABS) is a low-cost, easily available and widely distributed renewable resource, which is mainly composed of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin, and is a potential renewable energy resource. Pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass to phenol-enriched bio-oil is a promising application in the future. The pyrolysis methods, composition of lignocellulosic biomass, pyrolysis mechanism of main constituents of lignocellulosic biomass (cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin), and the effects of pyrolysis methods and catalyst type (active biochar, metal oxides, zeolite) on the phenols yield in the obtained bio-oil were discussed in detail. At last, the future research orientation of lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis into phenol-enriched bio-oil was put forward based on some key questions to be solved. The formation of phenolics bio-oil via lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis will provide a new path for the replacement of fossil energy, and provide theoretical support for the national "carbon peaking, carbon neutrality" goals.

Application and challenges of recycling waste salt in the ionic membrane-based Chlor-alkali industry
Under the guidance of China′s ecological civilization policy, while the utilization of industrial water has been improved, the total wastewater discharge still cannot be neglected. Therefore, zero liquid discharge (ZLD)...
Mineralization characteristics and formation mechanism of shallow groundwater in Yinchuan Plain
Based on the hydrochemical data of shallow groundwater in Yinchuan Plain, the total dissolved solids (TDS), pH and main ions were analyzed using statistical methods, Pipe-trigram, Gibbs model, and correlation analysis to...
Experimental study on the treatment of leachate from waste transfer station using coagulation sedimentation, air floatation, ABR, AA/O, and MBR process
The waste leachate generated from the operation of waste transfer stations poses a significant environmental pollution risk due to its complex and fluctuating water quality, which contains suspended solids, oil and greas...
Study on neurotoxic effects of microplastics and triclosan on the zebrafish
Zebrafish was chosen as a model organism to explore the neurotoxic effects of combined exposure to three microplastics (PP, PE, PVC) and triclosan (TCS). The results showed that microplastics (MPs) could be used as the c...
