Yan B, Yang H, Zhang N, Cheng J, Huang J, Zhao J, Zhang H, Chen W, Fan D. Microwave-assisted depolymerization of chitin and chitosan extracted from crayfish shells waste: A sustainable approach based on graphene oxide catalysis. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 251:126296. [PMID: 37573908 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126296] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/10/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023]
Abstract
This study targeted the sustainable utilization of chitin and chitosan from crayfish shell waste, and further depolymerization of the recovered products in one step through synergy between microwaves and graphene oxide, aiming for the monosaccharides, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and other high-value products. The results indicated that graphene oxide was more effective than graphene in enhancing the microwave absorption properties of the system, which is contrary to the parameters of their dielectric properties. The heating rate was increased by 0.37 K/s and 0.26 K/s when graphene oxide was introduced into the chitin and chitosan depolymerization systems, respectively, at a microwave power of 5 W/g. The mechanism underlying the impact of graphene oxide on chitin and chitosan under a microwave field was proposed by analyzing the variations in the depolymerization products of chitin and chitosan systems under different reaction conditions, including holding time, catalyst content, solvent content, and reaction temperature. Furthermore, the recovered graphene oxide exhibited delamination upon redispersion in water, which was not observed in the initial samples. The infrared spectra and scanning electron microscopy results suggest that the catalytic reaction is associated with oxygen-containing functional groups. This study demonstrated the synergistic effect of microwaves and graphene oxide on the depolymerization of chitin and chitosan, and the ability to achieve rapid one-step depolymerization in an acid/alkali-free solvent, which provides a green and promising development for the degradation of carbohydrate macromolecules in crustacean solid waste.

Abstract
Alcoholysis of ball-milled biomass over catalysts with Brønsted and Lewis acid sites provides an efficient and sustainable scheme to produce versatile biobased chemicals under mild conditions; however, optimizing the process parameters is challenged by the complexity of reaction pathways and the multiplicity of ball milling and combination catalyst gains. To address these challenges, we present kinetic analysis of ethyl levulinate (EL) production from ball-milled corn stover catalyzed by Brønsted (B) acidic ionic liquid [Bmim-SO3H][HSO4] (SO3H-IL) and Lewis (L) acidic Al2(SO4)3. Product analysis shows that cellulosic substrates can form EL either through the intermediate ethyl-d-glycopyranoside (EDGP) or levoglucosenone (LGO), with the former leading the alcoholysis reaction. Kinetics results reveal that ball milling accelerates the reaction rate by promoting the formation of EDGP and LGO from cellulose. Pure SO3H-IL gives high selectivity towards EDGP from ball-milled corn stover and promotes the LGO production, whereas addition of Al2(SO4)3 substantially facilitates their further conversion to EL. Our findings contribute to the rational design of efficient catalytic strategies for sustainable and profitable biorefinery.

Abstract
The catalytic hydrolysis of cellulose to produce 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a powerful means of biomass resources. The current efficient hydrolysis of cellulose to obtain HMF is dominated by multiphase reaction systems. However, there is still a lack of studies on the synergistic mechanisms and component transport between the various processes of cellulose hydrolysis in a complex multiphase system. In this paper, a liquid membrane catalytic model was developed to simulate the hydrolysis of cellulose and its further reactions, including the adsorption of the liquid membrane on cellulose particles, the consumption of cellulose solid particles, the complex chemical reactions in the liquid membrane, and the transfer of HMF at the phase interface. The simulations show the synergistic effect between cellulose hydrolysis and multiphase mass transfer. We defined an indicator () to characterize the sensitivity of HMF yield to the initial liquid membrane thickness at different reaction stages. decreased gradually when the glucose conversion increased from 0 to 80%, and increased with the thickening of the initial liquid membrane thickness. It was shown that the thickening of the initial liquid membrane thickness promoted the HMF yield under the same glucose conversion. In summary, our results reveal the mechanism of the interaction between multiple physicochemical processes of the cellulose liquid membrane reaction system.

Abstract
This study investigated the process intensification strategies for the pretreatment of Radiata Pine with the green deep eutectic solvent (DES) system composed of benzyltrimethylammonium chloride/formic acid (BTMAC/FA). The results showed that DES pretreatment drastically improved the delignification and hemicelluloses-removal capacity. The conducted process acceptably remained most of the cellulose in pretreated biomass (88.3%-91.8%). Benefiting from the overcoming of recalcitrance, the enzymatic digestibility of pretreated residues reached 92.4%. The efficient conversion was mainly ascribed to the lignin and hemicelluloses co-extraction. Meanwhile, the lignin yield and enzymatic saccharification was still largely maintained after five reuses. Further structural characteristics of lignin nanoparticles revealed that the lignin possessed high purity (95.19-97.51%), medium molecular weight (9600 to 6495 g/mol), and low polydispersity (ca 2.0), which was attributed to cleavage of ether bonds in lignin as well as linkages between lignin and hemicelluloses. Overall, this study illustrated that DES pretreatment was promising to achieve an efficient fractionation of woody biomass into fermentable glucose and high-quality lignin.

Abstract
Cellulose is the most abundant source of biomass, which can be converted into monosaccharide or other chemical platform molecules for the sustainable production of chemicals and fuels. Acid catalysts can promote hydrolytic degradation of cellulose into valuable platform molecules, which is of great significance in the development of chemicals and biofuels. However, there are still some shortcomings and limitations of the catalysts for the hydrolytic degradation of cellulosic biomass. Heteropoly acid (HPA), as a green catalyst, seems to be more conducive to the degradation of cellulosic biomass due to its extreme acidity. HPAs can be designed in homogeneous and heterogeneous systems. Moreover, they can be easily separated from the products in both systems by a simple extraction process. According to the unique properties of HPAs (e.g., good solubility, high thermal stability, and strong acidity), using heteropoly acid-based catalysts to depolymerize and convert cellulose into value-added chemicals and biofuels has become one of the most remarkable processes in chemistry for sustainability. In this review, the characteristics, advantages, and applications of HPAs in different categories for cellulose degradation, especially hydrolysis hydrolytic degradation, are summarized. Moreover, the mechanisms of HPAs catalysts in the effective degradation of cellulosic biomass are discussed. This review provides more avenues for the development of renewed and robust HPAs for cellulose degradation in the future.

Abstract
The reasonable and effective use of lignocellulosic biomass is an important way to solve the current energy crisis. Cellulose is abundant in nature and can be hydrolyzed to a variety of important energy substances and platform compounds—for instance, glucose, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), levulinic acid (LA), etc. As a chemical linker between biomass and petroleum processing, LA has become an ideal feedstock for the formation of liquid fuels. At present, some problems such as low yield, high equipment requirements, difficult separation, and serious environmental pollution in the production of LA from cellulose have still not been solved. Thus, a more efficient and green catalytic system of this process for industrial production is highly desired. Herein, we focus on the reaction mechanism, pretreatment, and catalytic systems of LA from cellulose and cellulosic biomass, and a series of existing technologies for producing LA are reviewed. On the other hand, the industrial production of LA is discussed in depth to improve the yield of LA and make the process economical and energy efficient. Additionally, practical suggestions for the enhancement of the stability and efficiency of the catalysts are also proposed. The use of cellulose to produce LA is consistent with the concept of sustainable development, and the dependence on fossil resources will be greatly reduced through the realization of this process route.

Abstract
This work presents a kinetic investigation of dilute sulfuric acid hydrolysis of bleached hardwood kraft pulp. The temperature-time dependence shows fast xylose extraction during the initial period of the process, while the glucose content increases slowly and permanently over the period. A conversion of xylose into furfural and furfural-derived chromophores is observed. It is established that only a low-brightness microcrystalline cellulose when a degree of polymerization below 300 can be obtained from hardwood pulp. The study of the acid hydrolysis kinetics, with respect to the degree of polymerization of microcrystalline cellulose, shows that the modified Prout-Tompkins equation describes most adequately the process. According to that kinetic model, the hydrolysis rate depends on a combination of chemical interaction and diffusion processes. It is evident that the activation energy does not change in the course of the process, i.e. the cellulose active centers do not change their activity.

Abstract
The search for efficient catalysts frequently leads to new homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts of increasing complexity, and sometimes common, natural, or hybrid natural/synthetic materials that could be used in catalysis are overlooked. For example, the leather industry has produced robust Cr-containing materials for centuries by chemical treatment of animal hides with chromium salts. Herein, the use of chromium-tanned leather as a heterogeneous catalyst for glucose dehydration to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) and levoglucosenone (LGO) is reported. Four pieces of waste leather were obtained from shoe soles and a belt, characterized by a range of techniques including FTIR spectroscopy, SEM, BET surface area measurements, XRD, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and their catalytic activity was evaluated. The activity of the scrap leather pieces compares favorably to those of many recently reported catalysts for the preparation of 5-HMF, but additionally results in significant quantities of LGO. Overall, the results demonstrate that waste leather is an outstanding material for use in catalysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As a potential health hazard, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) has been detected in thermally processed foods high in sugar and amino acids. In order to analyze HMF quantitatively and investigate the kinetics of its formation, high-performance liquid chromatography was employed to determine the content of HMF in six sugar-amino acid thermal reaction models. RESULTS In thermal reaction models, formation of HMF was significantly affected by sugar and amino acid composition, pH value and heating conditions. HMF formation increased with increasing sugar and amino acid (cysteine excepted) content, temperature and reaction time. A maximum amount of HMF of 1.50 g kg-1 was detected in the sucrose-glutamic acid model at 110 °C and 6 h. Low pH value and added acidic amino acids promoted the formation of HMF, especially in the sucrose-containing system. CONCLUSION HMF formation followed first-order kinetics in four models, including the model of glucose-cysteine, glucose-glutamic acid, glucose-leucine and sucrose-leucine. In contrast, HMF formation followed zero-order kinetics in the model of sucrose-glutamic acid. The quantity of HMF increased as the quantity of sugar and amino acid increased (cysteine excepted) in six tested models. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
This study highlights cellulose conversion for the production of 5-Hydroxymethyl Furfural using synergistic effect of modified activated carbon and ionic liquid under moderate reaction conditions. Modified Activated carbon after acid treatment (ACS, ACP, ACH) were used to examine their catalytic activity on hydrolysis of cellulose in [Bmim]Cl medium. Changes in physical-chemical properties were characterized using XRD, FE-SEM, EDX, FT-IR and BET surface area analyser techniques. Modified activated carbon is found competent in enhancing cellulose conversion to Total Reducing Sugars and 5-Hydroxymethyl Furfural. Further, the effect of six metal ions i.e Cr+3, Fe+3, Cu+2, Zn+2, K+ and Al+3 impregnated on sulfuric acid treated activated carbon (ACS) was explored. The catalytic performance improves with the impregnation of metals in the decreasing order: Cr+3> Fe+3> Cu+2> Zn+2> Al+3> K+. These modified catalysts with ionic liquid as solvent are found promising to generate eco-friendly system and cost effective cellulose conversion to value added products.

Abstract
A sequential production of levulinic acid (LA) and porous carbon material (CM) from cellulose was conducted by a two-step process. The cellulose was first acid hydrolyzed, and the preferred reaction conditions required a severity factor of 4.0⁻4.5, in which the yields of LA, formic acid, and solid residue were 38 ± 3 wt%, 17 ± 3 wt%, and 15 ± 3 wt%, respectively. The solid residue was further used for CM preparation through pyrolysis, with or without ZnCl₂ activation. The ZnCl₂ activation promoted the formation of CMs with improved thermal stability, high surface area (1184⁻2510 m²/g), and excellent phenol adsorption capacity (136⁻172 mg/g). The used CM can be easily regenerated by a simple methanol Soxhlet extraction process, and a comparable phenol adsorption capacity of 97 mg/g was maintained for the 5th reusing. Finally, 100 g cellulose produced 40.5 g LA, 18.9 g formic acid and 8.5 g porous CM, with a total carbon utilization ratio reaching 74.4%.

Abstract
The present work examined the potential for two plants grown on Canadian soil, Symphytum officinale L. (common comfrey) and Panicum virgatum L. (switchgrass), to produce 5-hydroxymethylfurfural using metal chloride catalysis in two ionic liquids, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride or 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride. Furthermore, two pre-treatments, namely the dilute sulfuric acid treatment and the methanol extraction, were studied as a way to improve sugar availability and increase 5-hydroxymethylfurfural yields compared with untreated biomass. The 0.5 mol/L H2SO4 hydrolysis under autoclave conditions produced sugar-rich extracts containing 230 ± 23 mg of sugars per gram of hydrolysed biomass for comfrey and 425 ± 13 mg of sugars per gram of hydrolysed biomass for switchgrass. The methanol extraction produced extracts high in simple sugars with concentration of 300 ± 60 mg of sugars per gram of dry extract for comfrey and 202 ± 16 mg of sugars per gram of dry extract for switchgrass. The yield of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural was improved from less than 1% using untreated biomass to 6.04% and 18.0% using dry methanol extracts of comfrey and switchgrass, respectively. These yields, although small, are important, as they show for the first time that a methanol extract could enhance the metal chloride catalysis in ionic liquids for 5-hydroxymethylfurfural production from biomass.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of microwaves on the production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) in a biphasic system was evaluated via a kinetic analysis. The reaction system consisted of an acidified aqueous phase and methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) as an organic phase, in which HMF is extracted directly upon formation during the reaction. Two identically shaped reactors were used to assess the influence of microwaves on the production of HMF. A borosilicate glass reactor was used to heat the reaction mixture via microwaves directly, whereas the silicon carbide (SiC) wall of the second reactor absorbed all microwaves and hence the reactor content was heated via convective heat transfer. An identical temperature profile was imposed on both reactors. Cellulose, glucose and fructose were chosen as feedstocks for the conversion to HMF. It was observed that microwaves have a significant effect on the reactions. The hydrolysis of cellulose to glucose was a 2.3 folds faster in the presence of microwaves at the process conditions (0.046 M HCl, 177 °C). The isomerization of glucose to fructose showed a similar increase (factor 2.5). The required energy input for the reaction was systematically higher for the SiC reactor.

Abstract
Oxidation of the primary OH groups in cellulose is a pivotal reaction both at lab and industrial scale, leading to the value-added products, i.e. oxidized cellulose which have tremendous applications in medicine, pharmacy and hi-tech industry. Moreover, the introduction of carboxyl moieties creates prerequisites for further cellulose functionalization through covalent attachment or electrostatic interactions, being an essential achievement designed to boost the area of cellulose-based nanomaterials fabrication. Various methods for the cellulose oxidation have been developed in the course of time, aiming the selective conversion of the OH groups. These methods use: nitrogen dioxide in chloroform, alkali metal nitrites and nitrates, strong acids alone or in combination with permanganates or sodium nitrite, ozone, and sodium periodate or lead (IV) tetraacetate. In the case of the last two reagents, cellulose dialdehydes derivatives are formed, which are further oxidized by sodium chlorite or hydrogen peroxide to form dicarboxyl groups. A major improvement in the cellulose oxidation was represented by the introduction of the stable nitroxyl radicals, such as 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO). However, a major impediment for the researchers working in this area is related with the severe depolymerisation occurred during the TEMPO-mediated conversion of CH2OH into COOH groups. On the other hand, the cellulose depolymerisation represent the key step, in the general effort of searching for alternative strategies to develop new renewable, carbon-neutral energy sources. In this connection, exploiting the biomass feed stocks to produce biofuel and other low molecular organic compounds, involves a high amount of research to improve the overall reaction conditions, limit the energy consumption, and to use benign reagents. This work is therefore focused on the parallelism between these two apparently antagonist processes involving cellulose, building a necessary bridge between them, thinking how the reported drawbacks of the TEMPO-mediated oxidation of cellulose are heading towards to the biomass valorisation, presenting why the apparently undesired side reactions could be turned into beneficial processes if they are correlated with the existing achievements of particular significance in the field of cellulose conversion into small organic compounds, aiming the general goal of pursuing for alternatives to replace the petroleum-based products in human life.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to investigate the kinetics of multiple chemicals in acid bisulfite pretreatment and the relationship between total sugar yields and pretreatment factors (temperature and time). The results showed Saeman model accurately fitted the pretreatment process. According to this kinetic model, a maximum hemicellulose hydrolysis yield was achieved at a treatment time of 75min with a temperature of 145°C. Meantime, the concentrations of acetic acid, hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), and furfural were 1.54, 0.60, and 1.15gL-1, respectively. Also, a Lorentzian function described the relationship between total sugar yield and pretreatment factors: temperature and time. The regression parameters from this mathematical fitting have accurately reflected the maximum total sugar yield and the optimal treatment conditions were determined to be 145°C and 110min.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acid hydrolysis is a popular pretreatment for removing hemicellulose from lignocelluloses in order to produce a digestible substrate for enzymatic saccharification. In this work, a novel model for the dilute acid hydrolysis of hemicellulose within sugarcane bagasse is presented and calibrated against experimental oligomer profiles. The efficacy of mathematical models as hydrolysis yield predictors and as vehicles for investigating the mechanisms of acid hydrolysis is also examined. RESULTS Experimental xylose, oligomer (degree of polymerisation 2 to 6) and furfural yield profiles were obtained for bagasse under dilute acid hydrolysis conditions at temperatures ranging from 110°C to 170°C. Population balance kinetics, diffusion and porosity evolution were incorporated into a mathematical model of the acid hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse. This model was able to produce a good fit to experimental xylose yield data with only three unknown kinetic parameters k a ,k b and k d . However, fitting this same model to an expanded data set of oligomeric and furfural yield profiles did not successfully reproduce the experimental results. It was found that a "hard-to-hydrolyse" parameter, α, was required in the model to ensure reproducibility of the experimental oligomer profiles at 110°C, 125°C and 140°C. The parameters obtained through the fitting exercises at lower temperatures were able to be used to predict the oligomer profiles at 155°C and 170°C with promising results. CONCLUSIONS The interpretation of kinetic parameters obtained by fitting a model to only a single set of data may be ambiguous. Although these parameters may correctly reproduce the data, they may not be indicative of the actual rate parameters, unless some care has been taken to ensure that the model describes the true mechanisms of acid hydrolysis. It is possible to challenge the robustness of the model by expanding the experimental data set and hence limiting the parameter space for the fitting parameters. The novel combination of "hard-to-hydrolyse" and population balance dynamics in the model presented here appears to stand up to such rigorous fitting constraints.
