Production of bio-oil by catalytic pyrolysis of Nannochloropsis sp. over renewed suface CaO catalysts
The surface of calcium oxide (CaO) was renewed by using hydration-calcination and thermal calcinations methods
respectively. The structure and property of renewed CaO was characterized by BET
XRD
SEM and CO2-TPD techniques. Meanwhile
the catalytic pyrolysis of Nannochloropsis sp. was investigated in a fixed-bed reactor. It is shown that two preparation methods for CaO obviously increase the specific surface area
meso-pore numbers
and pore volume. The renewed surface CaO catalysts were of typical face-centered structure and of higher catalyst activity
and could improve bio-oil product quantity. The yield of bio-oil produced on the hydration-calcination CaO was 28.65%
which was of higher calorific value (38.600 kJ·g-1)
lower kinetic viscosity (8.011 mm2·s-1)
and lower moisture content (2.49%). The main ingredients of bio-oil from catalytic pyrolysis of Nannochloropsis sp. were C12—C17 saturated normal alkanes
which are more suitable for being upgraded to bio-diesel.
