UPGRADING OF SUGAR CANE BAGASSE BY THERMAL PROCESSES. 2. CATALYTIC EFFECTS OF INORGANIC SALTS ON THE LIQUEFACTION OF BAGASSE WITH MONOETHANOLAMINE

摘要

Sugar cane bagasse was hydrogenated with monoethanolamine at 370℃ under 2000psi of H_2 for 1h using different catalysts (metallic and zeolitic). The qualitative and quantitative aspects are compared through conversion yields and thermogravimetric and elemental analysis of the liquefield products.
