Description
Summary:Xylose and cellulose acetate were prepared by hydrolysis and acetylation of hemicellulose and cellulose in landscaping biomass waste (pine) by dilute acid hydrolysis and acetylation, respectively. The obtained solid residue was rich in lignin that mainly contains three phenylpropane structural units and can be used to prepare aromatic chemicals under hydrothermal conditions. In this work, the synthesis of high value-added aromatic aldehydes (vanillin, syringaldehyde, and p-hydroxybenzaldehyde) from the solid residue (rich in lignin) by mild catalytic oxidation was studied. The oxidation degradation of the solid residue in NaOH solution to produce aromatic aldehydes was investigated by single factor experiment. The optimum reaction conditions were obtained as follows: 175 ℃, 90 min, 3.0 g solid residue, 100.0 ml NaOH solution (concentration of 2.0 mol/L), and oxygen pressure of 1.5 MPa. Under these conditions, the total yield of aromatic aldehydes from pine branch residue was 23.8 wt%.
