Abstract

In this study, thermochemical degradation of hemicellulose by Acetone-Solvolysis, the effects of reaction temperature, conversion yield, degradation properties and degradation products were investigated. Experiments were performed in a tube reactor by varying reaction temperature from $200{\circ}C$ to $400{\circ}C$ at 40 min of reaction time. The liquid products from pyrolysis-liquefaction of hemicellulose contained various kinds of ketones. ketones, as 4-methyl-3-penten-2-one, 3-methylene-2-pentanone, 22,6-dimethyl-2, 5-heptadien-4-one, 4-methyl-2-pentanone, 5-methyl-2-hexanone, 3,5,5-trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one, and bezenes. as 1,4-dimethylbenzene, 1-methyl-2-(1-methylethyl)-benzene, 1,4-dimethyl-2-(2-methylpropyl)benzene, 4-secbutyl-ethyl benzene, could be used as high-octane-value fuels and fuel additives. Combustion heating value of liquid products from thermochemical conversion processes of hemicellulose was in the range of $6,680{\sim}7,170cal/g$. After 40min of reaction at $400{\circ}C$ in Acetone-Solvolysis of hemicellulose, the energy yield and mass yield was as high as 72.2% and 41.2g oil/100g raw material, respectively.
