摘要

Developing green and efficient way for producing biofuel and high-value chemical from lignocellulosic biomass is of great significance for promoting green chemistry and sustainable development. Present work intended to explore a novel recyclable MnFe2O4 catalytic pre-treatment means to strengthen the synthesis of bioethanol and biofuel. The MnFe2O4 catalytic pre-treatment raised saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass, which was beneficial for the formation of ethanol intermediate and the production of biofuel. After MnFe2O4 catalytic pre-treatment, ethanol yield reached 34.2%. High ethanol conversion (93.8%) and good jet fuel selectivity (63.3%) were achieved in synthesizing biofuel process. According to catalyst’s characterization, lignocellulose’s characterization as well as radical’s detection, probable function/mechanism of MnFe2O4 catalytic pre-treatment was proposed. The MnFe2O4 catalyst facilitated the formation of hydroxyl radicals, thereby enhancing the depolymerization of lignocellulose and subsequent fuel synthesis. Considering that MnFe2O4 catalytic pre-treatment can be conducted by utilizing recyclable MnFe2O4 catalyst under gentle condition, this technology may provide an environmental-friendly pre-treatment means for facilitating the transformation of lignocellulose into biofuel.
