Identification of the fractions responsible for morphology conservation in lignocellulosic pyrolysis: Visualization studies of sugarcane bagasse and its pseudo-components

Abstract: a b s t r a c tPyrolysis of lignocellulosic materials typically form carbonaceous residues (chars) with structures similar to the starting material. However, previous studies reported in the literature have shown that fast pyrolysis of cellulose and lignin form a molten intermediate liquid resulting in chars with smooth surfaces and evidences of intense bubbling. The fraction responsible for morphology conservation during pyrolysis is not known. In this article, pyrolysis visualization studies were carried out… Show more

“…Lignin liquefies more readily and over a greater temperature range than xylan, while cellulose is far more refractory. It is the elasticity of the crystalline cellulose, in combination with the mineral skeleton, which maintains the structural integrity of the cell [15]. This collapse of cell structures and the consequent fluidity of the mass should facilitate contact between metal and substrate.…”

“…It is more resistant to decomposition than the other components of biomass because of the presence of high-energy carbon-carbon bonds between lignin units, such as 5-5' links [51]. Dehydration reactions are initiated around 200 C, and between 200 and 400 C cleavage of a-and b-aryl-alkyl-ether linkages (b-O-4 and a-O-4 bonds) occurs [15]. Around 300 C, aliphatic side chains start splitting off from the aromatic ring, resulting in the production of light hydrocarbons as well as small oxygenated compounds.…”

“…Using a fast speed camera the formation of intermediate liquid phase was observed in 3 stages: complete lignin melting, foaming and swelling of liquid phase by bubbles, and shrinking by evaporation and bubble collapse. Pecha et al 52,82,206 published a series of manuscripts in 2017 detailing experiments which studied the effect of vacuum on pyrolysis of cellulose, lignin, and xylan. These works illustrated, through high speed photography and pyrolysis product analysis, that the liquid intermediate is made up of partially pyrolyzed oligomers which will either break down into monomers or turn into char at atmospheric pressure.…”
