Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biomass refining, and specifically relates to a method for efficiently preparing furfural and glucose from forest and grass biomass. Background Art
[0002] As the world's most abundant renewable resource, the high value of forest and grass biomass is the focus of biorefining and green chemistry research. Cellulose and hemicellulose are important components of forest and grass biomass (accounting for 60-80% of the total content), which can be hydrolyzed and converted into various multifunctional monosaccharides (xylose, glucose, mannose, arabinose) and biomass-based platform compounds (furfural, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, levulinic acid). Among them, furfural, as a very important intermediate in fine chemicals and polymer industries, is widely used in resins, plastics, pesticides, green solvents, fuel additives and other fine chemical products; glucose can be used in medicine, food, microbial fermentation, leather and fuel, etc. Therefore, the study of the catalytic conversion of forest and grass biomass into furfural and glucose has important practical and strategic significance.
[0003] At present, there are two main methods for synthesizing furfural and glucose using forest and grass biomass as raw materials: (1) direct one-step chemical catalysis to obtain furfural and glucose; (2) pretreatment to achieve component separation: hemicellulose is converted into xylose, xylose is chemically catalyzed into furfural; the separated cellulose is converted into glucose through enzymatic hydrolysis. In the actual application of the direct one-step chemical catalysis method, a large amount of cellulose in forest and grass biomass is degraded into by-products (humus), and the glucose yield obtained is low, which limits its industrial application. For example, Li et al. (2023) used sulfuric acid as a catalyst, dichloromethane and LiBr·3H2O as solvents to catalyze corn stalk into furfural and glucose in one step, and obtained only 58.9% glucose yield and 72.5% furfural yield under the conditions of 120℃ and 90min (Y.Li, LLSun, DM Cao, et al., One-step conversion of corn stalk to glucose and furfural in molten salt hydrate / organic solvent biphasic system, Bioresource Technology, 386 (2023) 129520). The research on the separation of components after pretreatment and further synthesis of furfural and glucose has long been widely concerned by researchers at home and abroad due to its wide applicability and high yield of target products. For example, Zhang Sitong et al. pretreated corn stalks with ethylenediamine and sodium carbonate solution in Chinese patent CN118086423A, and obtained pretreated residues (cellulose content 65.1%, hemicellulose content 22.3%, lignin removal rate 85.2%) under the pretreatment conditions of 80°C and 4h. The pretreated residues were then enzymatically hydrolyzed by cellulase for 72h to obtain a glucose yield of 92.3%.Cheng et al. (2023) pretreated bamboo with a PTSA-DES / GVL solvent system and obtained a furfural yield of 68.6% and a pretreatment residue (90.0% cellulose retention rate, 89.1% lignin removal rate, and 100% hemicellulose removal rate) at 110°C for 1 h. The pretreatment residue was then enzymatically hydrolyzed by cellulase for 72 h to achieve a glucose yield of 91.2% (JYCheng, C.Huang, YNZhan, et al., Anovel mineral-acid freebiphasic deep eutectic solvent / γ-valerolactone system for furfural production and boosting the enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass, Bioresource Technology, 387(2023)129653). Although the above research methods show good results in preparing glucose or furfural, these methods require a long enzymatic reaction time and the use of expensive cellulase reagents, which increases the preparation cost and is not conducive to industrial production. Therefore, it is urgent to develop an environmentally friendly, simple to operate, and low-cost production technology to achieve an industrial method for preparing furfural and glucose.
