The pyrolysis of particles of glucomannan, the main component of softwood hemicelluloses, is investigated in a fluidized-bed reactor. A first set of experiments is carried out for temperatures in the range 530-690K to determine yields and composition of products. The most abundant are char, water and carbon dioxide. The condensable organic fraction mainly consists of acetic acid, formic acid, hydroxypropanone, hydroxyacetaldehyde and furfuryl alcohol.

Abstract

The pyrolysis of particles of glucomannan, the main component of softwood hemicelluloses, is investigated in a fluidized-bed reactor. A first set of experiments is carried out for temperatures in the range 530-690K to determine yields and composition of products. The most abundant are char, water and carbon dioxide. The condensable organic fraction mainly consists of acetic acid, formic acid, hydroxypropanone, hydroxyacetaldehyde and furfuryl alcohol.
