Torrefaction at 200 °C of Pubescens Pretreated with AlCl₃ Aqueous Solution at Room Temperature.

ABSTRACT: Metal salt soaking-torrefaction conversion technology was investigated. It was found that AlCl₃ pretreatment of pubescens favored observably the yield of liquid and small-molecular products in torrefaction via changing the composition and structure of the raw material. The maximum conversion of pretreated samples, washed (PSW) and Y _liquid were 15.5 and 10.8 wt % (with 0.26 wt % monosaccharides, 0.26 wt % carboxylic acids, 0.38 wt % furan compounds, and 1.28 wt % phenols), where 20.4 wt % hemicellulose, 22.9 wt % cellulose, and 5.7 wt % lignin were converted, respectively. However, for pretreated samples (PS), the maximum conversion and Y _liquid reached 44.2 and 32.1 wt %, respectively, along with 96.0 wt % hemicellulose and 31.8 wt % c
