Abstract:
This paper presents a study of the fast pyrolysis of two relevant biomasses in the global agro-industrial scenario: sugarcane straw (SCS) and eucalyptus bark (EB) in a fluidized bed reactor at a temperature of 500 ° C. The yields in bio-oil were 60.6 % wt (SCS) and 46% wt (EB) and, in terms of process, ESP collected about 5 - 7% of the bio-oil fractions even though it is the final collection operation at the plant. The products and by-products were characterized accordingly, with emphasis on the SCS bio-oil, which presented a better quality in relation to the EB bio oil obtained. However, the bio-oil of EB presented lower levels of N and Cl, being 0,4%wt and 0,012% wt respectively. In addition, Levoglucosan sugar (1,6-Anhydro-ß -D-Glucopyranose) and Benzenodiol isomeric phenols were some of the most prominent organic compounds in bio-oils..
