This work aims to investigate the influence of temperature on the textural, morphological and crystalline characterization of bioabsorbents produced by hydrothermal processing of corn husk residues with hot compressed H2O. The experiments were carried out at 175, 200, 225 and 250 ºC, 240 minutes, heating rate of 2.0 ºC/min and biomass/H2O ratio of 1:10, using a pilot scale reactor of 18,927 L. The process is analyzed in terms of yields of reaction products as a function of temperature. The results showed yields of solids ranging from 62.92 to 35.82% (weight), gas yields ranging from 1.49 to 9.59% (weight) and liquid products ranging from 35.43 to 54.59% ( Weight). The yield of the solid phase decreases with temperature, presenting an inflection region between 200 and 225 °C, in which a drastic change occurs, while that of the liquid phase increases, presenting the same inflection region between 200 and 225 °C. The gas phase yield increases exponentially with temperature up to approximately 10% (weight) in the investigated temperature range. Elemental analysis of solid products shows that the carbon content increases, while the oxygen and hydrogen content decreases with temperature. The textural, morphological and crystalline characterization of solid phase products analyzed by TG/TDG, SEM/EDX, XRD and BET. The solid phase product (bio-adsorbent) obtained by hydrothermal processing of corn husk residues at 225 and 250 °C, 240 minutes, and biomass/H2O ratio of 1:10, were chemically activated with 2.0 NaOH solutions. M and 2.0 M HCl to investigate the adsorption of acetic acid solutions (1.0; 2.0; 3.0; and 4.0 mg/mL). The adsorption kinetics investigated at 30, 60, 120, 240, 480 and 960 seconds. The adsorption isotherm showed that chemically activated carbons were able to remove acetic acid from aqueous solutions.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-04-24) TERIBELE, Tiago; SANTOS, Marcelo Costa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8380189608965320; MACHADO, Nélio Teixeira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5698208558551065
In this work, the effect of reaction time and biomass-to-H2O ratio on the structural evolution of hydrochar and kinetic of by hydrothermal processing of corn Stover with hot compressed H2O, have been systematically investigated. The experiments were carried out at 250 °C, heating rate of 2.0 °C/min, biomass-to-H2O ratio of 1:10, and reaction times of 60, 120, and 240 minutes, and at 250 °C, 240 minutes, heating rate of 2.0 °C/min, and biomass-to-H2O water ratio of 1:10, 1:15, and 1:20, using a pilot scale stirred tank reactor of 5 gallon. The characterization of solid phase products performed by thermo-gravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and elemental analysis (C, N, H, S). The physical-chemistry properties of solid phase analyzed in terms of dry matter (DM), total organic content (TOC), and ash. The yields of solid and gas phases decrease linearly with decreasing biomass-to-H2O ratio, while that of liquid phases increases linearly. For constant biomass-to-H2O ratio, the yields of solid, liquid, and gaseous reaction products varied between 52.97 and 35.82% (wt.), 44.84 and 54.59% (wt.), and 2.19 and 9.58% (wt.), respectively. The yield of solids decreases exponentially by decreasing the reaction time, while the yields of liquid and gas phases increase exponentially. For constant biomass-to-H2O ratio, TG/DTG curves shows that reaction time of 60 minutes was not enough to carbonize corn Stover. For constant reaction time, TG/DTG curves shows that increasing the H2O-to-biomass ratio worse the carbonization of corn Stover. For constant biomass-to-H2O ratio, the SEM images show the main morphological structure of the corn Stover remains practically unchanged, while for constant reaction time, SEM images show that plant microstructure retains part of its original morphology, demonstrating that a decrease on biomass-to-H2O ratio worse the carbonization of corn Stover. For constant biomass-to-H2O ratio, the EDX analysis shows that the carbon content in hydrochar increases with reaction time, while for constant reaction time, the carbon content decreases with increasing biomass-to-H2O ratio. The kinetic of corn Stover degradation was correlated with a pseudo-first order exponential model, exhibiting a root-mean-square error (r2) of 0,996, demonstrating that degradation kinetics of corn Stover with hot compressed H2O, expressed as hydrochar formation, is well described by an exponential decay kinetics.
