- Abstract
- The pyrolysis of a packed bed of fir wood particles, after impregnation with KOH, is investigated. For a
heating temperature of 800 K, maximum variations in the pyrolysis characteristics are observed for KOH
concentrations in wood below 1%. Decomposition temperatures become lower (35-70 K), and conversion
times are rapidly more than halved. Also, the char, water, and gas yields increase (factors of 1.4, 1.6, and 1.7,
respectively) at the expense of liquid-phase organic products. Levoglucosan presents a very steep decay, whereas
the diminution in hydroxyacetaldehyde and acid acetic is much slower, and a wide zone of approximately
constant values appears for hydroxypropanone. However, small quantities of KOH in wood (about 0.2-0.6%)
are apt to increase the yields of furfuryl alcohol up to a factor 15 and some carbohydrates (3-ethyl-2-hydroxy-
2-cyclopentenone, 3-methyl-2-cyclopentenone, 1-hydroxy-2-butanone) and phenols (phenol, cresols, hydroquinone,
guaiacol, isoeugenol-trans, isoeugenol-cis, 4-acetonguaiacol, 4-ethylguaiacol) up to factors of 2-6.
Higher KOH concentrations cause a further increase in the yields of char and CO2 associated with a decay to
very small yields of all of the organic compounds. Finally, increasing the heating temperature from 600 to 900
K (KOH concentration in wood of about 0.6%) essentially favors devolatilization and cracking of vapor-phase
organic products with conversion times roughly reduced by a factor of 6. (literal)
