Study of a two-stage wood chip hydrolysis process and the kinetics of monosaccharide formation

This article studies the sulfuric acid hydrolysis of paulownia and poplar wood chips using a two-stage approach. The research analyzes the temperature-dependent kinetics of the hydrolysis process, nothing a peak yield of reducing agents at 170 °C. An increased likelihood of reducing agent decomposition is observed as temperature rises, especially at 180 °C. Using liquid chromatography, the amounts of glucose, fructose, and arabinose in the hydrolysates were measured, with the largest glucose yield obtained at 170 °C. In addition, High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy showed the emergence of new functional groups in the hydrolyzed wood structure. Based on mathematical modeling and experimental validation, the two-stage hydrolysis method is regarded as a good technique. This method helps raise the of hydrolysates, which are employed as raw materials in biopolymer manufacture.
