1. Introduction
energy sources have attracted much attention. Biomass is one of the most severely
wasted resources and has advantages, including carbon neutrality, abundance, and low
cost. Biomass is usually treated by direct combustion and anaerobic digestion. Direct
combustion is the main method for handling biomass (Yin et al., 2018; Zeng et al.,
2007). However, this method is harmful to the environment and can produce
substantial amounts of toxic and harmful gases and dust (Hong et al., 2016; Zhang et
al., 2008). These contaminants can easily trigger severe asthma attacks (Torigoe et al.,
2000). Therefore, scholars must develop pollution-free and efficient means for
handling biomass.
countries, such as the United States and Canada, this method is used to analyze
material components; treat urban sludge, garbage, plastic, waste biomass, and rock
(Clarke et al., 2017); and generate power (Jones, 2014). This technology has also been
commercialized for treatment of domestic and agricultural wastes. However, the
countries. Given its superficial heating mechanism that is mainly based on heat
material to block heat transfer from the outer surface to the core (Farag et al., 2016;
Miura et al., 2004; Thostenson & Chou, 1999; Wu et al., 2014). Conventional
pyrolysis yields lower gas amounts and higher biochar levels compared with
microwave pyrolysis, which generates heat inside the material, under the same
conditions (Farag et al., 2016; Xin-hui et al., 2011). Hence, conventional pyrolysis
exhibits lower heating efficiency, longer pyrolysis time, slower heating rate, and
lower product quality (Xin-hui et al., 2011). Compared with traditional pyrolysis
efficient and selective and can be precisely controlled to a certain degree (Dai et al.,
2017; Li et al., 2016; Wang et al., 2016; Yin, 2012; Leng et al., 2019; Wang et al., 2018a;
Wang et al., 2018b; Wang et al., 2018c). In recent years, the use of microwave-assisted
pyrolysis of biomass has surged in biomass research. Rice straw is the most common
type of biomass and has been considerably explored for microwave pyrolysis. Du et al.
(Du et al., 2010) found that rice straw can produce an oil yield of 38% within 20 min
observed that the yield of rice straw pyrolyzed by microwave with a maximum power
of 800 W is very low (15.3 wt%). Huang et al. (Huang et al., 2013) reported that the
contents of lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose (Hu et al., 2015). More than 3×106
tons of C. oleifera shell is annually discarded or burnt (Zhang et al., 2018). To date,
only the products of C. oleifera shell in the fluidized-bed fast pyrolysis system (Wu et
al., 2016), Foss method (Xie et al., 2018), and water extraction (Zhang et al., 2011)
have been explored. Few studies have investigated the microwave-assisted pyrolysis
of C. oleifera shell.
Rice straw and C. oleifera shell collected from countryside is biomass processed
system. Incineration and landfilling are mainly used for biomass treatment (Yin et al.,
2018; Zeng et al., 2007). Meanwhile, conventional pyrolysis is the main method for
utilizing biomass resources. Previous studies concluded that pyrolysis technology can
achieve 50% reduction in waste volume and obtain high total heat values for bio-oil
(28 MJ/kg) and syngas (25 MJ/m3) (Inguanzo et al., 2002). In contrast to conventional
pyrolysis, the use of a rapid microwave pyrolysis device involves the following
advantages. (1) Uniform heat transfer, high heating efficiency, and fast response are
attained. (2) The coke content is greatly reduced, and the quality of biochar is
improved. (3) When the heating effect is the similar, the required temperature is
2.1. Materials
Rice straw and C. oleifera shell, which is the by-products of the agricultural
industry, was collected from Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, China. They were used as
raw materials and dried in an oven at 105 °C for 48 h. The samples were pulverized
by a pulverizer and screened with an 80-mesh sieve to obtain particles with 0.18 mm
diameter. The powders were dried again for 24 h for subsequent use. The cellulose,
hemicellulose and lignin content of the rice straw and C. oleifera shell was
The microwave pyrolysis system is shown in Fig. 1. This system can set the
target pyrolysis temperature and adjust the microwave power, feed rate and agitation
speed through the control system. When the spherical SiC in the microwave reaction
chamber reached the target temperature, the biomass was continuously fed into the
microwave reaction chamber through the screw feeder. Under the action of the
agitator, the residue generated after the reaction was discharged into the slag trap
through the orifice plate. The pyrolysis steam was condensed by the condenser into
bio-oil and collected in the liquid collector, and the non-condensable gas was
collected by the gas collector. The device has the advantages of that it can be operated
The pyrolysis of rice straw and C. oleifera shell was carried out at different
temperatures and feed rates to study the effect of these factors on bio-oil production
yield and quality. The microwave device was turned on to start heating before
pyrolysis. When the temperature of the reactor reached the desired value, 100 g of the
sample was fed to the reactor at different feed rates. We then investigated the
differences in the yield and quality of bio-oil from rice straw at different feed rates (24,
45, and 66 g/min) and temperatures (400 °C, 500 °C, and 600 °C). The temperature of
the microwave-assisted pyrolysis of C. oleifera shell was set to 400 °C, 500 °C, and
600 °C, and the feed rates were set to 100, 200, and 400 g/min. When no liquid
flowed into the condenser, the pyrolysis reactions were considered complete. After the
pyrolysis, the liquid product was weighed, and yield was calculated on the basis of the
actual weight. The yields of bio-oil and char were calculated based on their actual
weight. The condensed liquid in the condensers was considered as bio-oil. The solid
residue in the pyrolysis reactor was considered as biochar. The yields of bio-oil and
biochar were calculated basis on their actual weights. The gas weight was calculated
as follows:
Mg = Mf - Mo - Mc
where Mg, Mf, Mo, and Mc are the gas weight, initial feedstock weight, bio-oil
weight, and char weight, respectively. The temperatures of 400 °C, 500 °C, and
600 °C were selected based on previous literature indicating that 400 °C–600 °C is the
optimum temperature for the pyrolysis of straw (Balagurumurthy et al., 2015; Biswas
et al., 2017a; Jung et al., 2008; Park et al., 2014; Phan et al., 2014; Putun, 2004;
Ukaew et al., 2018). At these temperatures, differences in the yield of product and
quality of bio-oil in the pyrolysis of different varieties at different feed rates were
studied.
The bio-oil produced by pyrolysis was filtered through a 0.22 μm organic syringe
membrane. The chemical composition of the bio-oil was determined using an Agilent
programmed to heat to 60 °C for 2 min and then to 280 °C at a rate of 10 °C/min. The
vaporizer temperature was set to 250 °C, the split ratio was set to 20:1, and the
sampling size was 0.2 L. The carrier gas (helium) was introduced at a rate of 1
mL/min. The electron multiplier voltage of the MS detector was set to 1941 V, the
interface temperature was set to 280 °C, the ion source temperature was set to 230 °C,
and the analysis mode was scan mode. The area percentage was used to determine the
relative proportion of each chemical compound in the bio-oil. Considering that the
material was raw crude oil, we assumed that the detector reacted similarly to all
The characteristics of rice straw and C. oleifera shell are shown in Table 1. The
amounts of volatile combustible materials in rice straw and C. oleifera shell are very
high (approximately 76 wt%). The proportion of ash in rice straw (11.23 wt%) was
The O/C and H/C molar ratios were 0.79 and 1.60, respectively, for rice straw
and 0.75 and 1.47, respectively, for C. oleifera shell. We expected that the C. oleifera
shell would produce more oxygenated volatile compounds than rice straw. We
inferred that the chemical composition of rice straw is C1.00H1.60O0.79N0.02, and that of
rice straw achieved the highest yield of 31.86% at 24 g/min feed rate and 500 °C.
Consistent with results in previous studies, we considered that the optimum pyrolysis
temperature for rice straw was 500 °C (Jung et al., 2008; Park et al., 2014; Xiao et al.,
2010; Zhou et al., 2017). The bio-oil produced from the pyrolysis of C. oleifera shell
achieved the highest yield (27.45%) at 200 g/min feed rate and 400 °C, which is the
optimal pyrolysis temperature for biomass (Balagurumurthy et al., 2015; Biswas et al.,
2017a; Biswas et al., 2017b). The differences in the maximum bio-oil yield and
optimal pyrolysis temperature between rice straw and C. oleifera shell may be due to
Therefore, different biomass feedstock may have different maximum bio-oil yields
At 500 °C, the high feed rate resulted in low bio-oil yield from the pyrolysis of
rice straw and C. oleifera shell. After pyrolysis of C. oleifera shell and straw at
600 °C and 400 °C, respectively, the bio-oil yield increased with increasing feed rate.
partial anoxic conditions (Capunitan & Capareda, 2012). Table 2 shows the yield of
biochar and gas produced by the microwave-assisted pyrolysis of rice straw and C.
oleifera shell at 400 °C, 500 °C and 600 °C. In previous studies, the yields of biochar
and gas produced by the pyrolysis of rice straw at 500 °C in a fluidized bed reactor
pyrolysis reactor, the bio-char yields were 33.51%, 28.26%, and 25.81% and the gas
yields were 24.58%, 29.05%, and 28.08% at 400 °C, 500 °C, and 600 °C, respectively
(Park et al., 2014). In the present experiment, the microwave-assisted pyrolysis of rice
straw at 400 °C led to the yields of 37.41%, 38.67%, and 39.15% for biochar and
43.63%, 41.08%, and 39.39% for gas at the feed rates of 24, 45, and 66 g/min,
respectively. The biochar yields from the microwave-assisted pyrolysis of rice straw
were 32.44%, 34.83%, and 41.96% at 500 °C and 31.27%, 33.14%, and 34.52% at
600 °C; meanwhile, the gas yields were 35.70%, 38.14%, and 39.13% at 500 °C and
52.49%, 41.14%, and 49.20% at 600 °C at the feed rates of 24, 45, and 66 g/min,
respectively. The product yields of the pyrolysis reaction varied greatly at constant
such as product particle size, reactor, and heating rate, caused the varying degrees of
A high heating rate is favorable for rapid decomposition of biomass and produces
additional gas; this notion is consistent with the experimental results of the present
study (Kan et al., 2016). Given the high heating rate of microwave-assisted pyrolysis,
many types of chemical bonds are destroyed simultaneously before the rearrangement
temperature rises above 550 °C, the fragmentation reaction increasingly ensues and
easy to condense (Collard & Blin, 2014). Several studies have also shown that the
amount of volatile compounds produced increases with decreasing particle size in the
range of 0.18mm-0.50mm (Jung et al., 2008; Phan et al., 2014; Shen et al., 2009).
In this experiment, pyrolysis was conducted by varying the feed rate. When the
feed rate increased to a certain extent, the heat transferred in the reactor was
the feed rate increased the biochar yield. As shown in Table 2, the biochar yield
showed an increasing trend as the feed rate increased; thus, the biochar yields reported
are reasonable.
Previous studies reported that composition and mineral content may affect the
distribution and properties of the product because of the minerals’ catalytic effect on
biomass pyrolysis. For example, minerals can promote the rearrangement of the
aromatic ring and hence augment the biochar yield (Collard & Blin, 2014; Kan et al.,
2016), as exemplified by our experiment. The amount of biochar produced from rice
straw was higher than that from C. oleifera shell under the same conditions. Moreover,
differences in crystallinity and mineral content between rice straw contains and C.
oleifera shell can produce more biochar than cellulose during hemicellulose pyrolysis,
and rice straw contains more hemicellulose than C. oleifera shell. These observations
the amount of phenols was the highest (40.55%) at 600 °C. With increasing
temperature, the phenol yield increased gradually through lignin degradation (Biswas
et al., 2017b). The increase in the temperature promoted the cleavage of C–C and C–
O bonds in lignin and increased the yield of phenols (Ma et al., 2018). The aldehyde
and alcohol levels also increased with increasing pyrolysis temperature. The increase
in the temperature led to decrease in the ketone content, consistent with the reported
trend of ketones in literature (Ma et al., 2018; Nam et al., 2015; Xiong et al., 2018).
The content of organic acids also decreased with increasing temperature; the increase
increased with increasing temperature and were higher during pyrolysis at 500 °C
(42.63%, 20.45%, 11.51%, and 8.65%, respectively) than at other temperatures. This
finding is inconsistent with the variations in the amount of bio-oil produced through
and contents in the two biomass samples were dissimilar, thereby affecting the
interaction between different components (Kan et al., 2016). The organic acid content
gradually reduced with increasing temperature, and this trend was consistent with the
variation in bio-oil content with temperature during the pyrolysis of rice straw.
temperatures and feed rates, and the liquid product bio-oil was analyzed by GC–MS
(Agilent 7890 B) (Figs. 4 and 5). The bio-oil from the pyrolysis of rice straw contains
phenols, ketones, aldehydes, organic acids, and alcohols; of which, phenols are the
these components varied at different feed rates. The content of phenolic compounds in
the bio-oil produced by the pyrolysis of rice straw was the highest, consistent with
previous studies (Balagurumurthy et al., 2015; Biswas et al., 2017b; Jung et al., 2008).
With increasing feed rate, the content of phenols increased initially and then
increased, and that of organic acids decreased. As the feed rate increased, the heating
rate also decreased, and the heating temperature could not quickly reach the desired
temperature. According to previous studies, a low heating rate results in a high ketone
content (Xiong et al., 2018). Another study found that low heating temperatures of
400 °C–550 °C (low heating rate) led to higher contents of aldehydes, ketones, and
alcohols and lower contents of organic acids; meanwhile, the content of phenols
increased first and then decreased with increasing feed rate (Ma et al., 2018). This
The bio-oil produced by the pyrolysis of C. oleifera shell was similar to that
produced from rice straw. The main components are phenols, ketones, aldehydes,
organic acids, and alcohols; of which, phenols accounted for 34.59–42.63 wt%,
followed by ketones (14.69–20.45 wt%). Similar to that in rice straw, the content of
phenols in bio-oil from C. oleifera shell was the highest under different
were consistent with the changes in bio-oil produced by rice straw; that is, with
increasing feed rate, the organic acid content decreased, whereas the phenol content
increased initially and then decreased. However, the variations in the contents of
aldehydes, ketones, and alcohols differed between bio-oil produced from rice straw
and C. oleifera shell. With increasing feed rate, the contents of aldehydes, ketones,
and alcohols increased first and then decreased; this effect was mainly due to the
and rice straw. The different levels of lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose lead to
different interactions in the reaction (Kan et al., 2016). In addition, the changes in the
feed rate during the pyrolysis of C. oleifera shell and rice straw differed, which may
Based on previous studies, the present experiment used rice straw and compared

(Table 3). In the bio-oil compositions of the pyrolysis products from rice straw and C.
oleifera, phenols were the main components and specifically included phenol,
4.49%, 5.44%, 3.32%, 3.15%, 3.82%, 1.71%, 1.22%, 1.95%, 0.17%, and 0.23%,
respectively, in the bio-oil from rice straw and 7.46%, 6.34%, 4.92%, 2.39%, 2.45%,
1.39%, 1.91%, 1.58%, 0.64%, 0.74%, and 0.57%, respectively, in the bio-oil from C.
respectively). Phenols are widely used as raw materials in the chemical, agricultural,
and food industries. The amounts of furfural, vanillin, and 3,4,5- trimethyl pyrazole
(5.63%, 1.21%, and 0.79%, respectively) in the bio-oil produced from the pyrolysis of
C. oleifera shell were higher than those in the bio-oil produced by rice straw pyrolysis
(3.71%, 0.23%, and 0.00%, respectively). In particular, the content of furfural, which
is a raw material for preparing many drugs and industrial products, was the highest.
The bio-oil produced from the pyrolysis of C. oleifera shell has higher furfural
content that from rice straw and is thus more suitable for industrial production. Figs. 2
and 3 suggest that the amount of phenols in the bio-oil produced from C. oleifera shell
is much higher, and the organic acid content is lower than that in the bi-oil from rice
straw. These properties resulted in the lower acidity and improved bio-oil stability and
quality of bio-oil produced from C. oleifera shell than from rice straw.
The compositions of the rice straw and C. oleifera shell differ, resulting in
hemicellulose, and lignin were 36.72%, 26.81%, and 14.53%, respectively, in rice
straw and 23.40%, 30.72%, and 36.37%, respectively, in C. oleifera shell. The
from one another. Hemicellulose and cellulose degrade to form alkanes, aldehydes,
alcohols, ketones, carboxylic acids, furans, and derivatives as well as many aromatic
oxygenates. Phenolic derivatives and aromatic ethers are mainly derived from lignin
(Balagurumurthy et al., 2015; Biswas et al., 2017b). The lignin content in C. oleifera
shell was higher than that in rice straw. The contents of phenolic substances in the
bio-oil obtained from the pyrolysis of C. oleifera shell were higher than those in the
4. Conclusions
This experiment studied the influence of feed rate and temperature on the
Accelerating the feed rate helped raise the contents of aldehydes, ketones, and
alcohols in the bio-oil produced by the pyrolysis of rice straw. The contents of
phenolic substances, alcohols, and aldehydes increased, whereas the organic acid
content decreased, for the C. oleifera shell. Furthermore, the contents of phenols,
ketones, aldehydes, and alcohols were highest at 500 °C in the bio-oil produced by C.
oleifera shell, and the pyrolysis of it produced more gas and better bio-oil.
