Effects of Modified Activated Carbon on Microwave-Accelerated Organosolv Fractionation of Rice Husk.

ABSTRACT: Organosolv fractionation is a promising approach for the separation of lignocellulosic components in integrated biorefineries where each component can be fully valorized into valuable platform chemicals and biofuels. In this study, microwave-accelerated organosolv fractionation was developed for the modification of lignocellulosic fractionation of rice husk. The fractionation condition was optimized for 1 h with the microwave irradiation at 300 W using a ternary solvent mixture composed of 24%:32%:44% water/ethanol/methyl isobutyl ketone. The effects of mineral acids (HCl, H₃PO₄, and H₂SO₄) and heterogeneous acid promoters (HCl, H₃PO₄, and H₂SO₄ impregnated over activated carbon) on the efficiency and s
