In addition, supercritical fluid technology has been considered to be an environmentally-benign treatment. Therefore, its technology was applied for a conversion of biomass to useful fuels and chemicals in order to mitigate environmental loading. For example, supercritical water treatment has demonstrated that lignocellulosics can be hydrolyzed to become lignin-derived products for useful aromatic chemicals and carbohydrate-derived products, such as polysaccharides, oligosaccharides and monosaccharides of glucose, mannose and xylose used for subsequent ethanol fermentation. If this treatment is prolonged, lignocellulosics were found to be converted to organic acids such as formic, acetic, glycolic and lactic acids which can be converted to methane for biofuel. When alcohols, such as methanol and ethanol, were used instead of water, some other useful products were achieved, and its liquefied products were found to have a potential for liquid biofuel. In this study, therefore, our research achievements in supercritical fluid science of woody biomass will be introduced for clean and green chemistry for a sustainable environment.展开更多

The degree of conversion was 95.4% and the extract yield was 55.2% when cotton cellulose was non-isothermally extracted with ethanol from 20°C to 400°C. From an engineering standpoint, in the temperature range from 200°C to 320°C, the rate of extract formation could adequately be described by a second-order reaction kinetics equation with the activation energy of 105.3 kJ/mol and the pre-exponential factor of 3.53×107 s?1. With the non-isothermal experimental technique, it was possible to determine the kinetic parameters; conversion degree and extract yield by one experiment.展开更多

The results showed that the essential oil could be almost extracted out within 2 hours and the device-3 had the highest extraction efficiency. The major chemical component of the oil was cedrol. The yield of the extracted essential oils from Chinese fir decreased gradually with the increase of the distillation time. The best condition for extraction by means of CO2-SFE is 100 kg·cm?2 in pressure and 40°C in temperature for.

The properties distribution and SARA compositions of the fractions were analyzed, structure parameters and structure configurations were determined by means of the modified BL method based on 13C-NMR and 1H-NMR data. The results show uneven enriching of contaminants in heavier fractions and much complex structure for end-cuts and removing end-cuts from residua will greatly favor further upgrading. The results would help detailed understanding of KAZVR and RUSVR and their processing adaptability.展开更多

The effects of saturation pressure and desorption time on skin thickness are studied. The skin thickness is observed and measured using scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results show that the skin thickness decreases when saturation pressure increases from 15 MPa to 30 MPa. In contrast, the skin thickness increases as the desorption time changes from 2 min to 20 min.Therefore, the microcellular propellants with adjustable skin thickness can be obtained under the variable process conditions such as saturation pressure and desorption time.展开更多
