Fractional extraction and physico-chemical characterization of hemicelluloses and cellulose from sugar beet pulp 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Four hemicelluloses and cellulose fractions were extracted with 10% KOH or 7.5% NaOH at 15°C for 16 h and with 24% KOH or 17.5% NaOH at 15°C for 2 h from defatted, protein and pectin free, lignified or delignified sugar beet pulp (SBP). There was no significant difference in the yield and sugar composition of isolated hemicelluloses and cellulose obtained from four different procedures. 7.5% NaOH extraction at 15°C for 16 h from lignified SBP gave a slightly higher yield of hemicelluloses (10.96%), while 24% KOH extraction at 15°C for 2 h from delignified SBP produced the highest yield of cellulose (18.35%). Molecular-average weights ranged from 88 850 to 91 330 Da for the hemicelluloses obtained from lignified SBP, and 21 620–21 990 Da for the hemicelluloses isolated from delignified SBP. The neutral sugar composition of the hemicelluloses consisted of glucose, arabinose, galactose, xylose, and minor quantities of rhamnose and mannose. The infrared spectra showed an absorption band at 900 cm−1, indicating some amounts of β-linked polysaccharides. Besides ferulic and p-coumaric acids, six other phenolics were also identified in the mixture of alkaline nitrobenzene oxidation of associated lignin in the isolated hemicelluloses and cellulose fractions. 相似文献

Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process for ethanol production from various lignocellulosic woody (poplar and eucalyptus) and herbaceous (Sorghum sp. bagasse, wheat straw and Brassica carinata residue) materials has been assayed using the thermotolerant yeast strain Kluyveromyces marxianus CECT 10875. Biomass samples were previously treated in a steam explosion pilot plant to provide pretreated biomass with increased cellulose content relative to untreated materials and to enhance cellulase accessibility. SSF experiments were performed in laboratory conditions at 42 °C, 10% (w/v) substrate concentration and 15 FPU/g substrate of commercial cellulase. The results indicate that it is possible to reach SSF yields in the range of 50–72% of the maximum theoretical SSF yield, based on the glucose available in pretreated materials, in 72–82 h. Maximum ethanol contents from 16 to 19 g/l were obtained in fermentation media, depending on the material tested. 相似文献

Autohydrolysed beech sawdust has been treated with aqueous NaOH solution in a three-stage process to increase the susceptibility of cellulose to cellulolytic enzymes. This process consisted of neutralization of autohydrolysed wood, extraction of lignin and alkali treatment of residual solids with 1.5% aqueous NaOH solution at 135°C for 1 h. The cellulose in the residues was then hydrolysed with Novo (SP 122) and Fusarium sp. 27 cellulases [see 1,4-(1,3;1,4)-β-d-glucan 4-glucanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.4]. The susceptibility of cellulose to cellulases was increased 2.3 to 2.7-fold. 相似文献

Attempts were made to enhance cellulose saccharification by cellulase using cellulose dissolution as a pretreatment step. Four cellulose dissolution agents, NaOH/Urea solution, N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMMO), ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride; [BMIM]Cl) and 85% phosphoric acid were employed to dissolve cotton cellulose. In comparison with conventional cellulose pretreatment processes, the dissolution pretreatments were operated under a milder condition with temperature <130 °C and ambient pressure. The dissolved cellulose was easily regenerated in water. The regenerated celluloses exhibited a significant improvement (about 2.7- to 4.6-fold enhancement) on saccharification rate during 1st h reaction. After 72 h, the saccharification yield ranged from 87% to 96% for the regenerated celluloses while only around 23% could be achieved for the untreated cellulose. Even with high crystallinity, cellulose regenerated from phosphoric acid dissolution achieved the highest saccharification rates and yield probably due to its highest specific surface area and lowest degree of polymerization (DP). 相似文献

Alkaline pretreatment of spruce at low temperature in both presence and absence of urea was studied. It was found that the enzymatic hydrolysis rate and efficiency can be significantly improved by the pretreatment. At low temperature, the pretreatment chemicals, either NaOH alone or NaOH-urea mixture solution, can slightly remove lignin, hemicelluloses, and cellulose in the lignocellulosic materials, disrupt the connections between hemicelluloses, cellulose, and lignin, and alter the structure of treated biomass to make cellulose more accessible to hydrolysis enzymes. Moreover, the wood fiber bundles could be broken down to small and loose lignocellulosic particles by the chemical treatment. Therefore, the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency of untreated mechanical fibers can also be remarkably enhanced by NaOH or NaOH/urea solution treatment. The results indicated that, for spruce, up to 70% glucose yield could be obtained for the cold temperature pretreatment (-15 degrees C) using 7% NaOH/12% urea solution, but only 20% and 24% glucose yields were obtained at temperatures of 23 degrees C and 60 degrees C, respectively, when other conditions remained the same. The best condition for the chemical pretreatment regarding this study was 3% NaOH/12% urea, and -15 degrees C. Over 60% glucose conversion was achieved upon this condition. 相似文献

A multiple-unit indomethacin delivery system based on hydroxypropyl methylcellulose as the hydrophilic carrier material was developed by a novel technique using the insolubility of the cellulose ether at elevated temperatures and the ionotropic gelation of the polysaccharide, sodium alginate with calcium ions. Spherical beads were prepared by dropping hot sodium alginate solution (60°C) containing dispersed drug and dispersed hydroxypropyl methylcellulose into the heated calcium chloride solution. Beads with a combined hydroxypropyl methylcellulose-indomethacin solids content of up to 98% could be prepared because of the processing of a hydroxypropyl methylcellulose dispersion rather than a solution. The beads were characterized by dissolution and scanning electron microscopy. The drug release was controlled by the viscosity grade of the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and the rate of polymer gelation, and could be sustained over an 8-h period. 相似文献

Structure study of cellulose fibers wet-spun from environmentally friendly NaOH/urea aqueous solutions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In this study, structure changes of regenerated cellulose fibers wet-spun from a cotton linter pulp (degree of polymerization approximately 620) solution in an NaOH/urea solvent under different conditions were investigated by simultaneous synchrotron wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). WAXD results indicated that the increase in flow rate during spinning produced a better crystal orientation and a higher degree of crystallinity, whereas a 2-fold increase in draw ratio only affected the crystal orientation. When coagulated in a H2SO4/Na2SO4 aqueous solution at 15 degrees C, the regenerated fibers exhibited the highest crystallinity and a crystal orientation comparable to that of commercial rayon fibers by the viscose method. SAXS patterns exhibited a pair of meridional maxima in all regenerated cellulose fibers, indicating the existence of a lamellar structure. A fibrillar superstructure was observed only at higher flow rates (>20 m/min). The conformation of cellulose molecules in NaOH/urea aqueous solution was also investigated by static and dynamic light scattering. It was found that cellulose chains formed aggregates with a radius of gyration, Rg, of about 232 nm and an apparent hydrodynamic radius, Rh, of about 172 nm. The NaOH/urea solvent system is low-cost and environmentally friendly, which may offer an alternative route to replace more hazardous existing methods for the production of regenerated cellulose fibers. 相似文献

Cellulose is inherently resistant to breakdown, and the native crystalline structure (cellulose I) of cellulose is considered to be one of the major factors limiting its potential in terms of cost-competitive lignocellulosic biofuel production. Here we report the impact of ionic liquid pretreatment on the cellulose crystalline structure in different feedstocks, including microcrystalline cellulose (Avicel), switchgrass (Panicum virgatum), pine ( Pinus radiata ), and eucalyptus ( Eucalyptus globulus ), and its influence on cellulose hydrolysis kinetics of the resultant biomass. These feedstocks were pretreated using 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium acetate ([C2mim][OAc]) at 120 and 160 °C for 1, 3, 6, and 12 h. The influence of the pretreatment conditions on the cellulose crystalline structure was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). On a larger length scale, the impact of ionic liquid pretreatment on the surface roughness of the biomass was determined by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Pretreatment resulted in a loss of native cellulose crystalline structure. However, the transformation processes were distinctly different for Avicel and for the biomass samples. For Avicel, a transformation to cellulose II occurred for all processing conditions. For the biomass samples, the data suggest that pretreatment for most conditions resulted in an expanded cellulose I lattice. For switchgrass, first evidence of cellulose II only occurred after 12 h of pretreatment at 120 °C. For eucalyptus, first evidence of cellulose II required more intense pretreatment (3 h at 160 °C). For pine, no clear evidence of cellulose II content was detected for the most intense pretreatment conditions of this study (12 h at 160 °C). Interestingly, the rate of enzymatic hydrolysis of Avicel was slightly lower for pretreatment at 160 °C compared with pretreatment at 120 °C. For the biomass samples, the hydrolysis rate was much greater for pretreatment at 160 °C compared with pretreatment at 120 °C. The result for Avicel can be explained by more complete conversion to cellulose II upon precipitation after pretreatment at 160 °C. By comparison, the result for the biomass samples suggests that another factor, likely lignin-carbohydrate complexes, also impacts the rate of cellulose hydrolysis in addition to cellulose crystallinity. 相似文献

The regeneration kinetics of cellulose from cellulose--NaOH--water gels immersed in a nonsolvent bath is studied in detail. Cellulose concentration, bath type, and temperature were varied, and diffusion coefficients were determined. The results were compared with data measured and taken from the literature on the regeneration kinetics of cellulose from cellulose--N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMMO) monohydrate solutions. Different theories developed for the transport behavior of solutes in hydrogels or in porous media were tested on the systems studied. While the diffusion of NaOH from cellulose--NaOH--water gels into water has to be described with "porous media" approaches, the interpretation of NMMO diffusion is complicated because of the change of NMMO's state during regeneration (from solid crystalline to liquid) and the high concentration of NMMO in the sample. The activation energies were calculated from diffusion coefficient dependence on temperature for both systems and compared with the ones obtained from the rheological measurements. The activation energy of cellulose--NaOH--water systems does not depend on cellulose concentration or the way of measurement. This result shows that whatever the system is, pure NaOH--water solution, cellulose--NaOH--water solution, or cellulose--NaOH--water gel, it is NaOH hydrate with or without cellulose in solution, which is moving in the system. The swelling of cellulose in different nonsolvent liquids such as water or different alcohols during regeneration was investigated and interpreted using the Hildebrand parameter. 相似文献

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Lignocellulose is the most abundant biomass on earth. However, biomass recalcitrance has become a major factor affecting biofuel production. Although cellulose crystallinity significantly influences biomass saccharification, little is known about the impact of three major wall polymers on cellulose crystallization. In this study, we selected six typical pairs of Miscanthus samples that presented different cell wall compositions, and then compared their cellulose crystallinity and biomass digestibility after various chemical pretreatments. RESULTS: A Miscanthus sample with a high hemicelluloses level was determined to have a relatively low cellulose crystallinity index (CrI) and enhanced biomass digestibility at similar rates after pretreatments of NaOH and H2SO4 with three concentrations. By contrast, a Miscanthus sample with a high cellulose or lignin level showed increased CrI and low biomass saccharification, particularly after H2SO4 pretreatment. Correlation analysis revealed that the cellulose CrI negatively affected biomass digestion. Increased hemicelluloses level by 25% or decreased cellulose and lignin contents by 31% and 37% were also found to result in increased hexose yields by 1.3-times to 2.2-times released from enzymatic hydrolysis after NaOH or H2SO4 pretreatments. The findings indicated that hemicelluloses were the dominant and positive factor, whereas cellulose and lignin had synergistic and negative effects on biomass digestibility. CONCLUSIONS: Using six pairs of Miscanthus samples with different cell wall compositions, hemicelluloses were revealed to be the dominant factor that positively determined biomass digestibility after pretreatments with NaOH or H2SO4 by negatively affecting cellulose crystallinity. The results suggested potential approaches to the genetic modifications of bioenergy crops. 相似文献

Gelatinization mechanism of potato starch 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The non-Newtonian behavior and dynamic viscoelasticity of potato starch (Jaga kids red ’90, 21.0% amylose content) solutions after storage at 25 and 4°C for 24 h were measured with a rheogoniometer. The flow curves, at 25°C, of potato starch showed plastic behavior >1.0% (w/v) after heating at 100°C for 30 min. A gelatinization of potato starch occurred above 1.0% at room temperature. A very large dynamic viscoelasticity was observed when potato starch solution (3.0%) was stored at 4°C for 24 h and stayed at a constant value with increasing temperature. A small dynamic modulus of potato starch was observed upon addition of urea (4.0 M) at low temperature (0°C) even after storage at 25 and 4°C for 24 h. A small dynamic modulus was also observed in 0.05 M NaOH solution. Possible models of gelatinization and retrogradation mechanism of potato starch were proposed. 相似文献

Pine, eucalyptus, and switchgrass were evaluated for the production of fermentable sugars via ionic liquid and dilute acid pretreatments and subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis. The results show that among the three feedstocks, switchgrass has the highest sugar yields and faster hydrolysis rates for both pretreatment technologies by achieving 48 % (dilute acid) and 96 % (ionic liquid) sugar yields after 24 h. Of the two wood species, eucalyptus has a higher and faster sugar recovery after ionic liquid pretreatment than pine (93 vs. 62 % in 24 h) under 160 °C for 3 h with [C2mim][OAc]. Pretreatment of pine and eucalyptus is observed to be ineffective under 1.2 % dilute acid condition and 160 °C for 15 min, indicating that further enhancement of reaction temperature or acid concentration is necessary to increase the digestibility of pretreated materials. Raman spectroscopy data show that the extent of lignin depolymerization that occurs during pretreatment also varies for the three different feedstocks. Under similar hemicellulose removal conditions, lignin removal in ionic liquid pretreatment can help improve cellulose conversion. This finding may help explain the observed variation in the saccharification yields and kinetics. These results indicate that ionic liquid pretreatment not only improved saccharification over dilute acid for all three feedstocks but also better dealt with the differences among them, suggesting better tolerance to feedstock variability. 相似文献

Untreated cellulose was directly and quickly dissolved in NaOH/thiourea/urea aqueous solution. The mechanism of dissolution was investigated by SEM, WXRD and (13)C NMR. The components of this solvent cannot dissolve cellulose on their own, and the interactions between NaOH and urea, as well as between NaOH and thiourea, play an important role in improving the dissolution of cellulose. Moreover, (13)C NMR spectra proved that NaOH, thiourea, and urea were bound to cellulose molecules, which brings cellulose molecules into aqueous solution to a certain extent and prevents cellulose macromolecules from associating. (13)C NMR spectra of the cellulose solution show that this novel mixture is a direct solvent. Optical microscopy and CP MAS (13)C NMR were used to study the process of dissolution. The results reveal that cellulose is dissolved completely and that cellulose I (cotton linter) first changes to amorphous cellulose chains in solution, and then to cellulose II during regeneration. Moreover, a new, more effective dissolution method is proposed, as confirmed by dynamic rheology measurements. 相似文献

NaOH/urea aqueous solution has been used as a solvent for chitin for the first time. Effects of this solvent composition and temperature on the solubility and stability of chitin solution were studied with an optical microscope, from which 8 wt% NaOH/4 wt% urea concentrations were deduced as suitable and −20 °C as the appropriate temperature. The original and regenerated chitin were characterized by viscosity, elemental analysis, FI-IR and X-RD analysis, and the effect of solvent composition and temperature on chitin structure was investigated. It was inferred that 8 wt% NaOH/4 wt% urea solvent under low temperature adventitiously has little effect on chitin structure and the urea is of benefit to the stability of chitin solution. In addition, the rheological properties suggested that chitin aqueous solution in high concentration is a pseudoplastic fluid and that chitin aqueous solution in low concentrations is a Newtonian fluid. This chitin aqueous solution is sensitive to temperature and will transform it to a gel when temperature increases. 相似文献

An alkali-stable enzyme with laccase activity from entophytic fungus and the enzymatic modification of alkali lignin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mycelia Sterilia YY-5, an entophytic fungus, was isolated from Rhus chinensis Mill and its extracellular enzyme had a higher laccase activity (MS-Lac). After been purified by anion exchange and gel filtration chromatography, MS-Lac, which had a molecular mass of 45 kDa, was found to be an alkali-stable enzyme with an optimum pH of 10.0 and capable of retaining 80% activity after incubation for 72 h with syringaldazine as substrate. It was also found that syringaldazine had a higher affinity than 2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline)-6-sulphonate (ABTS) as substrate for MS-Lac, which was determined in sodium phosphate buffer (pH 6.0, 0.1 M) at 30 °C. Meanwhile, the lignin modification, catalyzed by MS-Lac, indicated that it could oxidize the phenolic hydroxyl, side chain substituent or carbonyl group of spruce alkali lignin in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) reversed micelles (20 mM, pH 6.0, W/O = 40) and steam-exploded wheat straw alkali lignin in NaOH solution (20 mM, pH 10.0). 相似文献

Retention and mortality associated with visible implant elastomer (VIE) and passive integrated transponder (PIT) tagged juvenile chub [ Leuciscus cephalus (L.)], dace [ Leuciscus leuciscus (L.)] and roach [ Rutilus rutilus (L.)] were evaluated. PIT tag retention (96.6–100%) was higher than VIE over the 6-month duration of the experiment. VIE retention was significantly better in the head (96.3–98.8%) than in the fins (78.8–90.9%) the first month after tagging, but the opposite was found after 6 months (head = 21.5–57.5%; fins = 77.2–88.8%). Survival was not significantly different from controls for any treatment, except dace tagged with 23-mm PIT (significantly influenced by mass of fish at tagging) and sham PIT tagged dace, because of initial losses. PIT tags are recommended as the most suitable method for tagging individual juvenile chub, dace and roach based on high retention and survival. VIE implantation in the head (studies < 30 days) and fins (studies > 30 days) could provide a cheap, batch-marking alternative, provided retention rates are monitored. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to develop a new inorganic-organic hybrid film. Nanohydroxyapaptite (nHAP) particles as the inorganic phase was mixed with cellulose in 7 wt.% NaOH/12 wt.% urea aqueous solution with cooling to prepare a blend solution, and then inorganic-organic hybrid films were fabricated by coagulating with Na2SO4 aqueous solution. The structure and properties of the hybrid films were characterized by high resolution transmitting electron microscopy (HRTEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) spectra, wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and tensile testing. The results revealed that the HAP nanoparticles with mean diameter of about 30 nm were uniformly dispersed and well immobilized in the hybrid film as a result of the role of the nano-and micropores in the cellulose substrate. A strong interaction existed between HAP and cellulose matrix, and their thermal stability and mechanical strength were improved as a result of good miscibility. Furthermore, the results of 293T cell viability assay indicated that the HAP/cellulose films had excellent biocompatibility and safety, showing potential applications in biomaterials. 相似文献

Response surface methodology was used to optimize cellulose recovery from orange peel using sodium hydroxide (NaOH) as isolation reagent, and to minimize its ash content using ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) as chelating agent. The independent variables were NaOH charge, EDTA charge and cooking time. Other two constant parameters were cooking temperature (98 °C) and liquid-to-solid ratio (7.5). The dependent variables were cellulose yield and ash content. A second-order polynomial model was used for plotting response surfaces and for determining optimum cooking conditions. The analysis of coefficient values for independent variables in the regression equation showed that NaOH and EDTA charges were major factors influencing the cellulose yield and ash content, respectively. Optimum conditions were defined by: NaOH charge 38.2%, EDTA charge 9.56%, and cooking time 317 min. The predicted cellulose yield was 24.06% and ash content 0.69%. A good agreement between the experimental values and the predicted was observed. 相似文献

The seeds of Cassia occidentalis, an annual weed occurring throughout India, is a rich source of galactomannan gum. The gum derived from seed endosperm can be potentially utilized in a number of industries to replace the conventional gums. With a view to utilize the gum for broader applications, carbamoylethylation of C. occidentalis seed gum was carried out with acrylamide in presence of sodium hydroxide under different reaction conditions. Variables studied were concentration of sodium hydroxide, acrylamide, gum–solvent ratio, reaction time and temperature. The nitrogen content, carboxyl content and total ether content were determined. The optimum condition for preparing carbamoylethyl C. occidentalis seed gum (%N=2.57) comprised concentration of acrylamide (0.070 mol), sodium hydroxide (0.125 mol), C. occidentalis seed gum (0.03 mol) at 30 °C for 3 h. Rheological properties of carbamoylethyl C. occidentalis seed gum solution showed non-Newtonian pseudo-plastic behavior, relatively high viscosity, cold water solubility and solution clarity vis-à-vis unmodified C. occidentalis seed gum. 相似文献

The high-pressure steam process was used to hydrolyze rape stems and Ulva pertusa kjellmann using only water. The biomass was hydrolyzed in a compressed cell at a high temperature and high pressure. The optimal pretreatment conditions were determined to be 180 and 10 bar for 8 min, with 8.5 and 7.4% (w/w) glucose conversion yields, respectively. After the pretreatments, the residues were easily hydrolyzed by treating the enzymes with 1 FPU/mL cellulase, and the 56.8 and 77% (w/w) total cellulose in the results were converted into glucose in 24 h. These results imply that using only water and not any other chemical can efficiently hydrolyze rape stems and Ulva pertusa kjellmann because the high-pressure steam pretreatment process can easily decompose the cellulose structure via XRD analysis, which will result in a high conversion yield with low doses of cellulase. This process was proven to generate a low amount (16.9 ppm) of HMF (hydroxymethylfurfural), which resulted in ethanol production with a 48.7% theoretical maximum conversion yield of glucose. It is believed that this process can be widely used to hydrolyze other agricultural and marine resources for bioethanol production. 相似文献
