Embodiment 1

[0025] Example 1 Separation of acorn shells

[0026] Soak 10 kg of acorns in water for 48 hours to make them swell, then remove them, dry them until the rubber shells and acorn kernels are separated, and then crush the acorns separated from the kernel shells to deshell the acorns, and then use air blowing separation equipment to separate the acorns. The rubber shells and acorn kernels were separated, and a total of 2.2 kg of rubber shells and 7.8 kg of acorn kernels were obtained.

Embodiment 2

[0027] Example 2 Activated carbon prepared from rubber shell

[0028] Take 1000 g of the rubber shell and place it in a 2 L tubular closed reactor, and pass N 2 Fully replace the air in the reactor to form an anaerobic environment in the reactor, and quickly heat to 500°C for preliminary carbonization. During the carbonization process, the gaseous products are condensed to obtain 0.388m 3 Synthesis gas and 260g of wood vinegar, after no gas is produced, gradually increase the temperature of the reactor to 800°C for further carbonization for 60 minutes, and then pass through steam to activate for 20 minutes to obtain activated carbon, and finally obtain 315g of activated carbon. The calorific value of synthetic gas is determined to be 5100 kcal / m 3 , the specific surface area of ​​activated carbon is 988 m 2 / g, pore volume 0.55 mL / g, pore diameter 1.35 nm.

Embodiment 3

[0029] Example 3 Extraction of oil and tannin by ethanol

[0030] Take 1000 g of crushed 80-mesh acorn powder, add 5 kg of absolute ethanol, place in a 10 L temperature-controllable stirring reactor, keep the temperature of the system at 75 ° C, extract for 2 h, then cool, and separate the solid and liquid. The solid phase was washed twice with absolute ethanol of the same mass as the initially added ethanol, and a total of 15 kg of the liquid phase was collected. Then add 5 kg of water to release the grease dissolved in ethanol, leave it to stand for stratification, collect the upper layer of grease, and obtain 50 g of acorn oil altogether. The ethanol solution in the lower layer was recovered by rectification, and the water in the rectification tower was evaporated to dryness and concentrated by a 5-effect evaporator, and the concentrated solution was spray-dried to obtain the rubber extract. A total of 126 g of the extract was obtained. The condensed water of the rectifica...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing fuel alcohol from acorns and resource utilization of the acorns. The method comprises the following steps: (1) separating kernels and shells of the acorns; (2) preparing activated charcoal from the shells, wherein wood vinegar and synthesis gas are generated, the activated charcoal is used for treating waste water generated during alcohol preparation; the synthesis gas is used for generating power and steam which serve as energies required by alcohol preparation; (3) crushing the shells and putting the crushed shells into alcohol for digestion, wherein after solid-liquid separation, the liquid phase is used for extracting grease and tannin, while the solid phase is dried; (4) conducting emulsion blending on the dried solid phase, liquification, saccharification and fermentation to produce alcohol; (5) conducting rectification and dehydration on the alcohol fermentation liquor to obtain absolute alcohol, wherein condensed water generated during rectification is reused in emulsion blending in the step (4); (6) filtering a kettle base solution generated during rectification, and preparing DDGS after filter residue is dried; removing environment-friendly units from the filter liquor. Activated charcoal obtained according to a biochemical process and the step (2) is used for preparing alcohol. The method is energy-saving, environment-friendly, simple, and feasible, and realizes resource utilization of the acorns.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for resource utilization of acorns, in particular to a method for preparing fuel ethanol from acorns and resource utilization. Background technique [0002] Fuel ethanol is a new type of clean fuel and an important direction for the development and utilization of renewable energy. Fuel ethanol can be produced by bio-fermentation from grain crops such as corn and wheat and non-food crops such as sugar cane, cassava, sweet potato, sorghum, and sugar beet, or by pretreatment of plant fibers, hydrolysis with inorganic acid or cellulase, and then through Produced by biological fermentation. A certain proportion of fuel ethanol is blended with ordinary gasoline to make ethanol gasoline. The ethanol content of ethanol gasoline for vehicles in China and the United States is 10v%, and the ethanol content of ethanol gasoline for vehicles in Brazil reaches an average of 22v%. Ethanol gasoline can effectively improve the perform...
