Catalytic pyrolysis of rice husk with SnCl2, Al2O3.4SiO2.H2O, and MoS2 for improving the chemical composition of pyrolysis oil and gas
Journal of the Indian Chemical Society(2022)
摘要
Pyrolysis of Indian variety rice husk was carried out in a semi-batch reactor in the presence of SnCl2, Al2O3.4SiO2.H2O, and MoS2 catalysts at a fixed temperature (550 °C), heating rate (50 °C min−1), and N2 flow rate (0.3 L min−1). The yield of pyrolysis oil increased in the presence of Al2O3.4SiO2.H2O catalyst but deteriorated in presence of SnCl2, and MoS2 catalyst. At 550 °C, the maximum pyrolysis oil yield from non-catalytic pyrolysis (NCP) was 37.46 wt% and with Al2O3.4SiO2.H2O catalyst it was 38.41 wt%. The yield of H2 (7.27 mol %) in pyrolysis-gas after catalytic pyrolysis (CP) was 0.72 mol% higher than NCP (6.55 mol %). The gross calorific value (GCV) of pyrolysis-gas after CP increased to 5.99 MJ m−3 from 3.84 MJ m−3 (NCP). High lignin contained in rice husk gave a better CH4 yield of 10.13 mol. %. Reduction in water content (3.07–5.77 wt %) of pyrolysis oil after CP elevated the high heating value (HHV) to 28.61 from 22.41 MJ kg−1. A 3.0–4.58 mol. % reductions in the acidic compound content after CP impacted the pH and TAN of pyrolysis oils. The Al2O3.4SiO2.H2O catalyst elevated the area percentage of naphthenic (0.54 mol. %), olefinic (1.98 mol. %), aromatic (4.18 mol. %), and paraffinic (4.42 mol. %) compounds in pyrolysis oil. A 3.86 mol. % increase in the phenolic compounds was observed in presence of MoS2 catalyst. Approximately, 22 wt% loss in oxygen with 21 and 2.65 wt% increases in the carbon and hydrogen content of biochar elevated the HHV to 30.60 MJ kg−1 after CP.
