Definitions
- the present invention relates to a novel process for the treatment of biomass materials.
- the process provides a method of separating biomass material into its major constituent parts.
- lignocellulosic material Most plant biomass materials, such as wood, are referred to as lignocellulosic material and comprise three main components, namely, cellulose, hemi -cellulose and lignin.
- Cellulose is a polysaccharide consisting of a linear chain of ⁇ (l— *4) linked
- D-glucose units and will usually comprise 7,000 to 15,000 glucose molecules.
- Hemi cellulose is a polysaccharide related to cellulose but is derived from several sugars including glucose, xylose, mannose, galactose, rhamnose, and arabinose and consists of shorter chains of around 200 sugar units.
- Lignin is: a cross-linked macromolecule with molecular masses in excess of
- Lignin is rich in the phenylpropanoids, such as p-coumaryl alcohol, coniferyl alcohol, and sinapyl alcohol.
- i Lignin is considered a desirable source of base chemicals as a substitute for petrochemicals.
- any process for the separation of lignin from biomass material has the minimal environment impact and therefore uses "green” technology and is low in energy consumption and waste products.
- U.S. Patent No. 4,520,105 describes a process involving a chemical pre-treatment with a mixture of water and lower alcohols or acetone, after which the residue is separated and then treated with a similar solvent mixture at elevated temperature.
- aqueous alcohol or aqueous acetone mixtures cannot easily be separated into two phases.
- separation of the lignin from dissolved sugars would require further processing through, for example, extensive washing.
- U.S. Patent No. 4,594,130 describes a cooking process, in the absence of oxygen, at elevated temperatures with a neutral or acidic mixture of alcohol and water containing a magnesium, calcium or barium salt as a catalyst.
- the catalyst is for the purpose of aiding retention of the hemicellulose in the cellulosic cake.
- European Patent Application 86305606.5 describes a process for digesting lignocellulosic material with an ester, an organic lignin solvent and water.
- the lignin solvent is either an organic acid or alcohol or mixtures thereof, and it is miscible in both the ester and the water. Cooling of the liquor apparently results in some phase separation, but a centrifuge is also required.
- US Patent No. 5,730,837 describes the use of sulphuric acid in a 24% water, 44% methyl isobutyl ketone and 32% ethanol in the separation of biomass at 140 0 C and resulting in an 18% yield of lignin based on the wood charged.
- lignin present in the biomass e.g. wood
- the hemicellulosic material and dissolved sugars remain in the organic phase and the cellulose remains as pulp in the solid remains from the biomass, e.g. wood.
- a method of processing biomass which comprises the digestion of biomass material in an aqueous solvent system subjected to ultrasonic waves, e.g. ultrasound, and separating the biomass into its constituents of lignin, hemicellulose and cellulose.
- a mixture of biomass e.g. wood; water, a water miscible solvent and a water immiscible solvent at varying acidities are digested and separately, simultaneously or sequentially subjected to sonication, e.g. ultrasound, in order to break the biomass into cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin.
- sonication e.g. ultrasound
- further water may be added to aid the separation in the organic and aqueous phases.
- the use of ultrasonication is especially advantageous in, inter alia, the hydrolysis of the hemicelluloses present in the biomass.
- the lignin present in the biomass is generally extracted into the organic phase, the hemicellulosic material and dissolved sugars is extracted into the aqueous phase and the cellulose remains in the biomass residue.
- the method of the invention comprises digestion of a lignocellulosic material in an acidic aqueous medium.
- acids may be used, in one aspect of the invention it is desirable that the acid is of as high a pH as possible.
- a mineral acid such as sulphuric acid, phosphoric acid or nitric acid, may be used.
- sulphuric acid may be preferred.
- a preferred acid may be an organic acid, such as an aliphatic carboxylic acid, an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid an aminocarboxylic acid or an aminodicarboxylic acid.
- organic acid When an organic acid is used in the process of eth invention it may generally have a pKa of less than 5, e.g. from 2 to 5.
- an aliphatic carboxylic acid or an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid may contain 1 to 6 carbon atoms in the molecule, preferably 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
- organic carboxylic acids include, but shall not be limited to, acetic acid and formic acid. Such acids are recognised as being weak acids.
- the acid may be a dicarboxylic acid.
- the carboxylic acid may be a Zwitter ionic acid, such as an aminocarboxylic acid, for example, glutamic acid. It will be understood by the person skilled in the art that that the concentration of the acid may vary and that mixtures of the aforementioned acids may be used.
- ultrasonication is beneficial in the hydrolysis of the hemicelluloses present in the biomass.
- ultrasonication may be used as a pre-treatment prior to applying other processes to the biomass material as described herein.
- we have surprisingly found that ultrasonication is beneficial in the hydrolysis of the hemicelluloses to monosaccharide, the aldopentoses, such as, ribose, arabinose, xylose and lyxose. It will be well understood by the person skilled in the art that such monosaccharides are beneficial in their own right or in the generation of fermentation products, etc.
- hemicellulose material may be a mixture of hemicelluloses materials and may comprise the hemicellulose separated from a bulk biomass material or may comprise the biomass material itself.
- an essential element of the present invention is the use of sonication as an energy source, e.g. the use of ultrasound.
- ultrasound as a power source may be in the range of from 2 to 10 MHz, for the purposes of the present invention the ultrasound used will generally have a frequency in the range of from 10 to 250 kHz, alternatively, from 20 to 100 kHz.
- the process liquor or slurry is subject to the operating vicinity of the ultrasonic probe if used, or of an ultrasonic energy transducer, such as a wrap-around ultrasonic energy transducer assembly, if such a configuration is employed.
- an ultrasonic energy transducer such as a wrap-around ultrasonic energy transducer assembly
- a suitable example of such a device known in industry and commercially as the ProsonitronTM, is documented in WO 00/35579.
- the ultrasonic energy may be applied continuously or in a discontinuous manner, such as by pulsed application. Any suitable source of ultrasonic irradiation may be used.
- An ultrasonic probe may, for example, be inserted into a mixing vessel, such as a continuous ultrasonic flow cell, an ultrasonic emitter may be contained in the mixing vessel, or the mixing vessel may be housed in an ultrasonic bath or it may have an ultrasound transducer fixed to the external walls of the mixing vessel.
- the amplitude and frequency of the ultrasound waves affects the rate of nucleation and crystal growth.
- the frequency of the ultrasound waves may for example be from 16 kHz to 1 MHz, preferably from 10-500 kHz, more preferably from 10 - 100 kHz such as at 10, at 20, 40, 60, 80, or 100 kHz or at any frequency therebetween, such as, 30 kHz or 50 kHz.
- the ultrasonic irradiation is employed at an amplitude or power density that is appropriate for the production of material for a pre-determined application.
- the amplitude selected may be from about 1 - 30 ⁇ m, typically from 3 - 20 ⁇ m, preferably from 5 - 10 ⁇ m, for example, 6 ⁇ m.
- the power density for the transducers employed may be from 10 - 100 W/L, preferably from 30-80 W/L, and more preferably from 50-75 W/L, for example 60 W/L or 70 W/L.
- the present invention is particularly suitable for industrial scale production.
- the residence time of the mixed components in the ultrasonic flow cell may be preferably greater than 0.1 ms, more preferably greater than 1 ms, more preferably greater than 1 minute, for example between 1 second and 24 hours, more preferably between 1 minute and 6 hours, more preferably between 5 minutes and 1 hour.
- the ultrasound source may vary depending, inter alia, upon the nature of the biomass, but we have found that an ultrasound source with an energy output of from 50 to 400 W is desirable, e.g. 100 to 300 W or 150 to 250 W, e.g. 200 W.
- the mechanism by which ultrasound improves the separation of lignin from lignocellulosic material is not well understood, but it may be due to ultrasound's ability to cause cavitation which causes local extremes of temperature and pressure in the liquid where the reaction happens and/or it breaks up solids and removes passivating layers of inert material to give a larger surface area for the reaction to occur over. Sonication reduces the amount of insoluble pulp and increases the yield of organic soluble lignin.
- the process may be improved, by, for example dewaxing the lignocellulose material prior to reaction.
- dewaxing may be microbiological, e.g.
- the digestion process can be made more efficient through preliminary treatment of lignin by fungi. This enables a decrease in the degree of lignin polymerisation and, therefore, facilitates the slowest step of the digestion reaction.
- the pre-treatment of the biomass material prior to further processing may also be advantageous in that, inter alia, the purity of resulting products may be improved.
- any biomass will contain not only lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose, but also proteins, waxes, essential oils, inorganic compounds, etc. and the influence of any by-products, e.g. on further processes, may be reduced.
- the rate of reaction may be faster in a flow regime compared to, for example, a stirred tank.
- the process of the reaction may include an additional energy source, i.e. in addition to sonication.
- additional energy sources may be utilised, such as thermal energy.
- the separation process may be carried out at low temperature, that is, low temperature compared to prior art process.
- the prior art process described in The process described in US Patent No. 5,730,837 is conducted at a temperature of 140°C and up to as high as 220 0 C, whereas, by contrast, the process of the present invention may be conducted at a temperature of about 4O 0 C, for example from 30 to 6O 0 C. Therefore, according to the present invention an additional energy source which may be utilised may be microwave energy.
- microwave energy it is known to use microwave energy in the treatment of biomass materials, the use of microwave in association with sonication is novel per se and is considered within the scope of the present invention.
- the process of the present invention may be desirably carried out at atmospheric pressure, however, it is within the scope of the present invention for the reaction to be carried out at elevated pressure.
- a ketone such as an aliphatic ketone.
- the ketone is an aliphatic ketone having at least 4 carbon atoms (and may have as many as 10 carbon atoms).
- Aliphatic ketones which may be mentioned include, for example, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isopropyl ketone, methyl propyl ketone, methyl butyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, methyl isoamylketone, diethyl ketone, ethyl isopropyl ketone, ethyl propyl ketone, and ethyl isobutyl ketone.
- a particular ketone which may be mentioned is methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK).
- MIBK methyl isobutyl ketone
- the ketone is present in the solvent system in an amount of from about 5 to 65% w/w.
- the weight ratio of ketone to water is preferably in the range of about 1:9 to 5:1, so long as a single phase of digesting liquid is obtained.
- the water miscible or water soluble solvent may preferentially be an alcohol.
- the alcohol may have less than about 4 carbon atoms to assure that it will be water- miscible.
- Useful alcohols which may be mentioned include, for example, methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol and butanol.
- the alcohol is typically present in an amount of from about 25 to 35% w/w.
- the weight ratio of solvent(s) to biomass may vary depending upon, inter alia, the nature of the biomass, the nature of the solvent, etc. However, the ratio may be from 4:1 to 10:1.
- the phase may be easily separated by the addition of either water or water-immiscible solvent.
- the lignin present in the water-immiscible solvent may be isolated by conventional techniques, such as, for example, evaporation of the usually volatile, water-immiscible solvent.
- the hemicellulose and dissolved sugars will generally be in the aqueous or water miscible phase and cellulosic material remaining in an insoluble cake.
- the process described herein is advantageous in that, inter alia, a large proportion of the materials employed in the method described herein is recyclable, for example, there may be as much as 95% recovery of the materials e.g. solvents, acid, etc used in the method of the invention.
- lignin, hemicellulose and/or cellulose prepared by the process as hereinbefore described we provide lignin, hemicellulose and/or cellulose prepared by the process as hereinbefore described.
- lignin prepared by the process as hereinbefore described we provide hemicellulose prepared by the process as hereinbefore described.
- cellulose prepared by the process as hereinbefore described we provide cellulose prepared by the process as hereinbefore described.
- the acid hydrolysis process may be replaced or supported by hydrolysis using one or more heterogeneous catalysts, such as xeolite, palladium, and the like.
- the solvent separation process as hereinbefore described may comprise the use of one or more solvent compatible membranes, for example a nanomembrane, which aid the separation of for example, water miscible and water immiscible components.
- membrane separation may be desirable in that, inter alia, it would minimise or remove the need for the use of certain solvents and especially organic solvents which may be environmentally undesirable.
- the process as hereinbefore described may comprise a continuous process or a batch process.
- a continuous process is preferred.
- biomass may be treated at or close to source, in which case a batch process may be desirable.
- the ultrasound is provided to the process liquor or slurry in a vessel using a multiplicity of ultrasonic transducers attached to a wall of the vessel in an array extending both circumferentially and longitudinally, each transducer being connected to a signal generator so that the transducer radiates no more than 3 W/cm 2 , the transducers being sufficiently close together and the number of transducers being sufficiently high that the power dissipation within the vessel is between 25 and 150 W/litre.
- a system for the processing of biomass which comprises the digestion of biomass material in an aqueous solvent system subjected to ultrasonic waves and separating the biomass into its constituents of lignin, hemicellulose and cellulose.
- a reactor e.g. a mobile reactor
- for the processing of biomass which comprises the digestion of biomass material in an aqueous solvent system subjected to ultrasonic waves and separating the biomass into its constituents, lignin, hemicellulose and cellulose.
- an assembly for the processing of biomass may comprise a plurality of reactors arranged to enable the performance of a "biorefinery process”.
- the reactor as hereinbefore described may comprises a reaction vessel, an ultrasound source and a phase separation system.
- the reactor as hereinbefore described may optionally comprise one or more of a microwave source, a solvent recycling or regeneration system, a membrane separation system, etc.
- compositions used in the reproduced examples of this study are: 15 g of dry biomass (dried in vacuum oven to ensure known amount of water in the liquor, and chipped by planer into 1-3 mm chips), 150 ml of liquor (24% water, 44% methylisobutylketone MIBK, 32 % ethanol), 0.05 mol L-I sulphuric acid H 2 SO 4 .
- the main effect of sonication appears to be to make the process of conversion of lignin polymer into organic-soluble lignin more effective and/or in making lignin more accessible to organic solvent.
- the ultrasonic device 7 irradiates the mixture with ultrasonic energy and the mixture flows through an outlet 9 and into the jacketed vessel 1, completing a continuous closed flow loop. The flow cycle is repeated until the desired product mixture is attained.
- the process mixture is thoroughly and rapidly mixed; the volume of the vessel 1 and the flow rates being such that the residence time in the ultrasonic flow cell chamber 7 is for example, 10s or 60s or 100s.
- the closed loop process apparatus of Figure 7 may be configured so that, for example, the process slurry may be removed from the apparatus via valve 10 and pump 1, and for example by introducing additional delivery means 12, 13 for further process liquor or slurry.
