Пиролиз лигноцеллюлозного сырья в ценные продукты является перспективным направлением для переработки отходов деревообрабатывающей промышленности и для получения энергоносителей. Поиск катализаторов, обеспечивающих максимальный выход и теплоценность получаемых продуктов, - это актуальный вопрос в развитии технологии пиролиза. В данной работе были проведены исследования по влиянию катализаторов на основе природных алюмосиликатов на пиролиз сосновых опилок. Было найдено, что катализатор Ni-Red Clay оказывает наибольшее влияние на процесс термодеструкции сосновых опилок, приводя к увеличению выхода жидких и газообразных продуктов пиролиза. Pyrolysis of lignocellulose feedstock into valuable products is a promising direction for processing waste from the woodworking industry and for obtaining energy carriers. The search for catalysts that provide the maximum yield and heat value of the products obtained is an urgent issue in the development of pyrolysis technology. In this paper, studies on the effect of catalysts based on natural aluminosilicates on the pyrolysis of pinewood sawdust were carried out. It was found that the Ni-Red Clay catalyst has the highest influence on the process of thermal degradation of pinewood sawdust, leading to an increase in the yield of liquid and gaseous pyrolysis products.

The present investigation described the effective preparation of glucosamine hydrochloride (GluHCl) from chitin which was extracted from indigenous shrimp shell. GluHCl has attracted much attention owing to its therapeutic activity in osteoarthritis and widely used dietary supplement. The key step involved was extraction of chitin from shrimp skeleton and then hydrolysis of chitin by concentrated hydrochloric acid. The reaction proceeds via break down of glycoside linkage. Structural analysis was carried out by melting point, TLC, FT-IR, elemental analysis and all the data were compared with that of standard GluHCl. The elemental (C, 32.75; H, 6.51; N, 6.20) analysis is good concord with the calculated value (C, 33.42; H, 6.54; N, 6.50). Absence of v max at 1726 cm-1 indicates that GluHCl is a deacetylated product of chitin. The yields of the product mainly depend on reaction conditions. Maximum yield (63.5%) was obtained when chitin was hydrolyzed with concentrated HCl for 1.30 h. Key words: Shrimp shell; Chitin, Acid hydrolysis; Glucosamine hydrochloride Osteoarthritis.

In this report, bio-oil was produced from the pyrolysis of Para Rubber de-oiled seed residue mixing with clay catalyst of 5-20%wt. under 400 to 600°C. Pyrolytic oil was determined for the thermal weight loss characteristic, heating value, structural and physical properties. Results showed the yield of pyrolytic oil increased with the increasing catalyst percentage, maximum yield of 24.59%wt. was revealed from the pyrolysis at 550°C. Using clay catalyst of 5%wt. at 400°C gave bio-oil with the highest heating value up to 49.17 MJ/kg. While pyrolytic oil which obtained from the mixture of de-oiled seed residue and 10%wt. clay at 400°C showed the thermal degradation behavior in the range of diesel and gasoline. All pyrolytic oils produced in this study have the major hydrocarbon structure of C-H stretching as investigated by FTIR. However, this product should be upgraded to get better properties closed to the commercial fuel.

Pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass with acidic pre-treatment to produce valuable bio-chemicals has been carried out in an integrated pyrolysis-gas chromatograph/mass spectrometry system. Three different waste biomasses (fir wood sawdust, pine wood sawdust and nutshell) were subjected to acidic solution to specify the acid pre-treatment effect on biomass chemical structure, thermal degradation profile and pyrolysis products. Post acid pre-treatments, the changes in the biomasses and thermal degradation profile were studied through proximate, structure and ultimate analysis and thermogravimetric. The pre-treatment significantly reduced the inorganic, cellulose and hemicellulose content in biomass samples. According to the pyrolysis experiment results, acid pre-treatment provided the increasing of the amount of phenolic in the degradation products at 10 min pyrolysis time. All the results would assist further understanding of thermal decomposition and thermo-chemical application for bio-fuels and bio-chemicals of fir wood sawdust, pine wood sawdust and nutshell.Article History: Received January 15th 2018; Received in revised form May 24th 2018; Accepted 7th June 2018; Available onlineHow to Cite This Article: Ozbay, N. and Yaman, E (2018) Enhancing the Phenolic Content of Bio-Oil by Acid Pre-Treatment of Biomass.

Pyrolysis of sewage sludge for the fixed bed were investigated at different final temperatures (300-900 °C) to acquire distribution and characteristics of pyrolysis products. The mass balance was established on base of continuous on-line measurement of gases and integration of gas compounds to give a more accurate reflection on the yields distribution. It was observed that at low temperatures the liquid was the main product with maximum yield of 57 wt%(daf) at 500°C and the gas composition was mainly CO2. Under the condition of a higher pyrolysis temperature (above 600°C), secondary reaction occurred among phase of solid, liquid and gas and generated more CO and H2. From the perspective of energy utilization and accumulation of heavy metals, a lower temperature no more than 600°C is suitable for sewage sludge pyrolysis.

The production of microalgae faces several obstacles. The bioreactors and processes used today in microalgae cultivation are expensive or lack optimization to scale up. Furthermore, harvesting, concentrating and dewatering, while using a cheap and suitable photobioreactor are the main problems that we need to be overcome to achieve viability in the process. The Clay Ceramic Bioreactor (CCBR) was built using only clay and wood sawdust and was designed to grow an immobilized microalgal biofilm while having almost complete separation from the liquid culture medium, reducing the consumption of water and energy. Results showed that the wood sawdust particle size should be sifted in a mesh size 10 and mixed in a proportion of 33% of sawdust and 67% of red clay and a maximum firing temperature of 900oC. Maximum dry biomass production of 3.71 g.m-2.d-1 was achieved within 7 days of cultivation, with no CO2 addition and a low light intensity of 45 µmol.m?2.s?1. The biomass was harvested through simple scraping. Initial results indicate a great potential for the use of clay as substratum and further tests should be carried out to scale up and optimize microalgae production,
