Definitions
- plant biomass can be digested by means of hydrohalic acids in such a way that the carbohydrates present in the plant in the form of cellulose, hemicellulose, starch and / or oligomerized form are extracted, depolymerized and dissolved in the acid.
- hydrohalic acids There are a variety of methods known, which has enforced industrially only the Bergius-Rheinau process. The general principle of hydrolysis was realized in upright and sequential reactors, with the acid passed through the reactors at various concentrations (see DE 927139).
- CONFIRMATION COPY Laboratory scale for example, tested for straw and achieved good results.
- high solids concentrations could be achieved (30% DM in the solution).
- This is the classical method by using vertical reactors even possible, however, the acid must be pumped through a substantially larger volume, since the density of filling of, for example, chopped straw from about 0.06-0.1 kg / 1 lie 't , This a much larger number of reactors, which ultimately leads due for the same 'biomass throughput to a considerable investment costs increase.
- the mashing of the straw by pumping however, inevitably leads to an effect that compensates for this fact.
- Disadvantage of the proposed approach is the sophisticated apparatus design.
- the invention described here allows a very simple adaptation of the classical method, so that annual or slightly woody plants according to the essential feature of the classical method, the passage of a liquid phase through a stationary solid phase, can be saccharified without it a significant increase in the investment costs.
- the first modification is based on the fact that weak lignified biomasses can usually be pelleted. That is, they are compacted prior to loading into the hydrolysis reactor.
- the corresponding compaction device must therefore not be acid-resistant, which should lead to a significant cost savings.
- the density of the filling of straw for example, can be increased by a factor of 8. Compared with the traditional loading of wood chips (about 200-230 kg / m 3 ), this would correspond approximately to a halving of the reactor volume to be installed.
- the sole filling with pellets can cause them to swell so much upon introduction of the acid that a uniform flow ⁇ can no longer be guaranteed.
- the acid flows along the reactor walls along the swollen biomass.
- the second modification of the classical method ⁇ is based on the clarification of the mechanism of lignin coagulation in the hydrolysis of weakly woody biomass, and in the laboratory the behavior of the solid residue during hydrolysis in glass containers.
- the decisive effect will be described by means of a simplified representation of the hydrolysis process.
- the first phase begins with the slow introduction of the acid. During the introduction, a diffusion into the plant material occurs, whereby the hydrolytic process starts immediately.
- the first phase ends with the reactor being completely filled with acid, which is considered to be complete hydrolysis in the technical sense.
- the solid residue at this time has a lower density than the liquid surrounding it. It comes to a kind of floating in the reactor. The strength of the solid residue has subsided elementary, since the cellulose composite has been dissolved out by the acid.
- the second phase begins with the introduction of the water from above and the displacement of the acid according to the density principle. This means that, given a correspondingly slow and uniform introduction, ideally no mixing of the specifically heavier hydrolyzate solution with the specific 1 lesser water takes place. This means that the phase boundary between heavy and light phase migrates from the top starting through the reactor and thus also through the solid residue. As ⁇ mentioned above, the density of the residue is less' than that of the hydrolyzate. However, it is much higher than that of the water coming from above. The part of the solid residue in the water "pushes" Accordingly down while floating in the hydrolyzate part strives to above. It is to 'the phase boundary consequently a Compression.
- the lignin compound of wood proves to be so strong in practice that the flow of liquids is not hindered. However, this is different for weakly woody biomass such as straw.
- the lignin composite is continuously compacted, so that practically at the lower end of the lignin body, a plug is formed, which in the best case flows around only laterally. In the worst case it comes to a blockage. This effect was described in the above-mentioned patent as "caking".
- the lignin compound is distributed with its entire weight along the lateral lower wall and no longer alone on the bottom of the reactor.
- the compressing effect during displacement is reduced. Structurally, this effect can be supported by the fact that on the side lower wall modifications, such as notches, are made on the wall, which hinder slipping of the lignin residue. ⁇
- pelleting is redefined here. It is a compaction of biomass with the aim to produce individual bodies, so-called pellets, which in themselves have such a strength that they can be used in bulk as bulk material.
