This study investigated the pyrolysis of microalgal-bacterial granular sludge for producing bio-oil and biochar. Results showed that the bio-oil productivity of pyrolyzed MBGS reached 39.5-45.4 wt%, while 23.8-41.2% for the nitrogen-containing bio-oil at the temperature of 673-1073 K. Meanwhile the biochar with a nitrogen content of 3.7-7.0 wt% could also be produced. Moreover, the Van-Krevelen diagram revealed that produced bio-oil had a H/C ratio higher than that from agroforestry biomass, but its O/C ratio was found to be similar to those of coal and biochar. It further appeared from a mass conservation analysis that the highest bio-oil production yield was achieved at a pyrolysis temperature of 773 K, while the pyrolytic kinetics of MBGS in the temperature range studied was governed by the 3-D diffusion mechanism with the activation energy of 224.96 kJ·mol.
本研究探讨了微藻-细菌颗粒污泥热解制备生物油和生物炭。结果表明,在 673-1073 K 的温度下,热解 MBGS 的生物油产率达到 39.5-45.4wt%,而含氮生物油的产率为 23.8-41.2%。同时,还可以生产出含氮量为 3.7-7.0wt%的生物炭。此外,范·克里夫伦图表明,所制备的生物油的 H/C 比高于农林生物质,但 O/C 比与煤和生物炭相似。进一步的质量守恒分析表明,在 773 K 的热解温度下,生物油的最高产率达到了最高,而在研究的温度范围内,MBGS 的热解动力学受 3-D 扩散机制控制,其活化能为 224.96 kJ·mol。
