Abstract

In the present study, pyrolysis–gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (Py–GC/MS) analysis were employed to characterize the structure and composition of evolving gas while using prot lignin as feedstock. Non-catalytic and catalytic (Co/TiO2, Co/CeO2 and Co/ZrO2) pyrolysis were performed at 300, 400, 500 and 600 °C. The pyrolysis products were grouped as phenolics (S, G and H-type), heterocyclic, other type, aromatic hydrocarbon and aliphatic hydrocarbon. Among all the catalysts, Co/CeO2 effectively promoted the formation of S-type phenolics (30.8%) at 300 °C from the depolymerization of lignin, and showed maximum selectivity towards ethanone, 1-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl) (26.3%) and acetosyringone (13.5%) at 300 °C. Maximum amount of H-type phenolics (49.7%) was observed in the presence of Co/TiO2 catalyst at 600 °C. In another set of experiments, non-catalytic and catalytic (Co/CeO2) hydropyrolysis of lignin were also investigated using 1, 5, 10 and 15 bar pressure of hydrogen at 300 °C. At 1 bar H2 pressure, Co/CeO2 catalyst effectively led to the production of maximum amount of aromatic hydrocarbon (46.8%) from the hydropyrolysis of lignin, while, 23.9% of aromatic hydrocarbon was obtained from the non-catalytic hydropyrolysis of lignin.
