The kinetics of simultaneous aqueous extraction and hydrolysis of spruce hemicelluloses

Forskningsoutput: Konferensbidrag › Arbetsdokument › Peer review

Sammanfattning

The aqueous extraction of hemicelluloses has gained an increasing interest with new emerging applications for hemicelluloses in the modern forest-based biorefinery concept. The extraction kinetics play a key role in their industrial utilisation. Pressurised hot water extraction of spruce sap wood was investigated in the temperature range 120–170°C using a large liquid-to-solid ratio in an intensified cascade reactor system. The results show significant temperature dependence of the extraction rate, albeit low influence of pH. Moreover, a clear dependence of the hydrolysis rate on the temperature and pH was observed. The molecular mass of the extracted hemicelluloses was influenced by the chip size. A kinetic model was developed for describing the extraction kinetics.
