Production and characterization of furanic bio-oil from Kawayan kiling (Bambusa vulgaris Schrad ex. Wendl) using molten citric acid in an open system
Source abstract
Abstract
The burning of fossil fuels poses many threats to the environment. These predicaments have led to a continuous search for alternative sources and production of energy, and biomass is considered the most abundant renewable energy source. In this study, the potential to produce furanic bio-oil from the cellulose of Bambusa vulgaris was explored. The proximate chemical analysis of bamboo was determined using TAPPI Standards. Cellulose was isolated through dewaxing, delignification, and alkaline treatments. The furanic bio-oil was produced by mixing cellulose and citric acid in a solvent-free environment. The effects of the digestion time (120 min, 180 min, and 240 min) on the yield and characteristics were determined. The chemical compositions were determined using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCMS). B. vulgaris has the following chemical composition: alpha-cellulose (57.42 ± 0.40), holocellulose (78.84 ± 0.52), lig-nin (28.85 ± 0.17), hot water extractives (3.99 ± 0.08), organic extractives (0.77 ± 0.04), ash (4.67 ± 0.02), and moisture (12.98 ± 0.22). The bio-oil yield was affected by the digestion time. The highest yield was obtained at 180 min, followed by 120 min, and 240 min with 88.59%, 59.28%, and 49.96%, respectively. The peaks in the FTIR spectra corresponded to the compounds determined by the GCMS analysis. The dominant chemicals were furans (29.19%), ketones (26.31%), and carboxylic acids (19.26%). The bio-oil obtained at 180-min digestion time has the following properties: sulfur content (0.032 wt%), kinematic viscosity (1.03 mm2/s), specific gravity (0.925), copper corrosion test (No. 1a), pH (2.753), and water content (not detected). Overall, the obtained values from the properties and chemical characterization can be the basis for investigating its performance for biofuel production and utilization. This study is aligned with the Bamboo Industry’s Strategic Science and Technology Plan for the Philippines to develop other value-added products from bamboo and to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG 7) as determined by the United Nations.
