Effective Depolymerization of Sodium Lignosulfonate over SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2−</sup>/TiO<sub>2</sub> Catalyst

In this paper, liquefaction of sodium lignosulfonate (SL) over SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2−</sup>/TiO<sub>2</sub> catalyst in methanol/glycerol was investigated. Effects of temperature, time, the ratio of methanol to glycerol and catalyst dosage were also studied. It was...

description In this paper, liquefaction of sodium lignosulfonate (SL) over SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2−</sup>/TiO<sub>2</sub> catalyst in methanol/glycerol was investigated. Effects of temperature, time, the ratio of methanol to glycerol and catalyst dosage were also studied. It was indicated that optimal reaction condition (the temperature of 160 °C, the time of 1 h, solvent ratio (methanol/glycerol) of 2:1, catalyst dosage of 5 wt % (based on lignin input)) was obtained after sets of experiments. The maximum yields of liquefaction (89.8%) and bio-oil (86.8%) were gained under the optimal reaction conditions. Bio-oil was analyzed by elemental analysis, FT-IR and gas chromatogram and mass spectrometry (GC/MS). It was shown that the functional groups of bio-oil were enriched and calorific value of bio-oil was increased. Finally, it can be seen from GC/MS analysis that the type of products included alcohols, ethers, phenols, ketones, esters and acids. Phenolic compounds mainly consisted of G (guaiacyl)-type phenols.
