Thermo-catalytic decomposition of cotton seed press cake over nickel doped zeolite Y, hydrogen: enhanced yield of bio-oil with highly selective fuel-range hydrocarbons. RSC Adv 2024; 14:31549-31559. [PMID: 39372054 PMCID: PMC11450969 DOI: 10.1039/d4ra06163b] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2024] [Accepted: 09/27/2024] [Indexed: 10/08/2024] Open
Abstract
This research reports the yield of bio-oil from cotton seed press cake (CSPC) via an optimized thermo-catalytic pyrolysis using nickel impregnated zeolite Y, hydrogen catalyst. The catalyst, raw biomass and catalyst impregnated biomass were characterized using different analytical techniques. The ideal temperature, duration, and catalyst concentration for pyrolysis experiments were determined to be 300 °C, 20 minutes, and 5% of Ni-doped zeolite Y, hydrogen, respectively, in order to achieve the best bio-oil yield (35%). Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) of pyrolytic bio-oil depicted the presence of C2-C26 hydrocarbons. The findings of this investigation showed that the synthesis of bio-oil with highly selective fuel-range hydrocarbons could be efficiently induced through the pyrolysis of CSPC biomass employing nickel impregnated zeolite Y, hydrogen catalyst. Moreover, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of cotton seed press cake with catalyst was carried out at various heating rates to find out the kinetic parameters. Employing Kissinger model, activation energy (E a) and frequency factor (A) for various components of biomass i.e., hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin were calculated as 83.14 kJ mol-1, 99.76 kJ mol-1, 124.71 kJ mol-1 and 1.9 × 107 min-1, 1.0 × 108 min-1, 1.0 × 1010 min-1, respectively. It can be concluded from the results that cotton seed press cake waste has potential for use as a pyrolysis feedstock in large-scale bio-fuel production.

A narrative action on the battle against hunger using mushroom, peanut, and soybean-based wastes. Front Public Health 2023; 11:1175509. [PMID: 37250070 PMCID: PMC10213758 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2023.1175509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Numerous generations have been affected by hunger, which still affects hundreds of millions of people worldwide. The hunger crisis is worsening although many efforts have been made to minimize it. Besides that, food waste is one of the critical problems faced by most countries worldwide. It has disrupted the food chain system due to inefficient waste management, while negatively impacting the environment. The majority of the waste is from the food production process, resulting in a net zero production for food manufacturers while also harnessing its potential. Most food production wastes are high in nutritional and functional values, yet most of them end up as low-cost animal feed and plant fertilizers. This review identified key emerging wastes from the production line of mushroom, peanut, and soybean (MPS). These wastes (MPS) provide a new source for food conversion due to their high nutritional content, which contributes to a circular economy in the post-pandemic era and ensures food security. In order to achieve carbon neutrality and effective waste management for the production of alternative foods, biotechnological processes such as digestive, fermentative, and enzymatic conversions are essential. The article provides a narrative action on the critical potential application and challenges of MPS as future foods in the battle against hunger.
