Energy cane is a genotype derived from sugarcane species, with lower sucrose and higher fiber content, for bioenergy production. This study analyzed the pyrolysis products of energy cane bagasse and investigated the influence of reaction temperature and kinetic and thermodynamic parameters. The findings revealed the primary compounds produced at different temperatures and determined the average activation energies and thermodynamic parameters of the decomposition process. This research provides encouraging insights for utilizing high-fiber-content energy cane bagasse to produce biofuels.
Energy cane is a genotype derived from species of sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum and Saccharum spontaneum) with a lower sucrose content and higher fiber content for bioenergy purposes. It is a rustic plant that demands less fertile soils that do not compete with food crops. In this work, an analysis of energy cane bagasse pyrolysis products was performed, assessing the effect of reaction temperature and kinetic and thermodynamic parameters. Anhydrosugars, such as D-allose, were the primary compounds derived from the decomposition of energy cane at 500 & DEG;C. Methyl vinyl ketone and acetic acid were favored at 550 and 600 & DEG;C. At 650 & DEG;C, methyl glyoxal, acetaldehyde and hydrocarbons were favored. Among the hydrocarbons observed, butane, toluene and olefins such as 1-decene, 1-undecene, 1-tridecene and 1-tetradecene were the most produced. The Friedman isoconversional method was able to determine the average activation energies in the ranges 113.7-149.4, 119.9-168.0, 149.3-196.4 and 170.1-2913.9 kJ mol(-1) for the decomposition of, respectively, pseudo-extractives, pseudo-hemicellulose, pseudo-cellulose and pseudo-lignin. The thermodynamic parameters of activation were determined within the ranges of 131.0 to 507.6 kJ mol(-1) for & UDelta;H, 153.7 to 215.2 kJ mol(-1) for & UDelta;G and -35.5 to 508.8 J mol(-1) K-1 for & UDelta;S. This study is very encouraging for the cultivation and use of high-fiber-content energy cane bagasse, after sucrose extraction, to produce biofuels as an alternative to the current method of conversion into electricity by low-efficiency burning.
