Description
本発明は木質系廃材の処理に関するもので、さらに詳しくは廃材の粉砕粉末を、超臨界状態または亜臨界状態の低級アルコールを含む二酸化炭素に接触させることを特徴とする木質系廃材の分解処理方法に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a treatment of wood waste, and more specifically, a method for decomposing a wood waste, comprising contacting a ground powder of waste wood with carbon dioxide containing a lower alcohol in a supercritical state or a subcritical state. It is about.
石油や石炭などの化石燃料をエネルギー資源としてきた従来の発展に対して、地球環境維持、持続可能な社会の実現に向けて、バイオマスエネルギーや太陽エネルギーなど、化石燃料以外のエネルギー開発が急速に行われている。 Energy development other than fossil fuels, such as biomass energy and solar energy, has been rapidly progressing toward the maintenance of the global environment and the realization of a sustainable society in contrast to the conventional development that has used fossil fuels such as oil and coal. It has been broken.
また、地球環境保護の観点からは廃棄物においても、廃棄物処理場の不足や廃棄物の再利用・リサイクルなど多くの課題があり、その対策技術が多く検討されている。 Also, from the viewpoint of protecting the global environment, there are many problems with waste, such as a shortage of waste disposal sites and reuse / recycling of waste.
このような状況の中で、樹皮や間伐材、剪定枝、建築廃材などから発生する木質系廃材の再利用技術の開発も強く求められている。また、木質系廃材は、上記建築廃材などだけでなく、東南アジアなどで多く栽培されているパーム椰子の椰子殻廃材や廃葉・廃幹なども大量に発生するため、その利用方法の開発が望まれている。 Under such circumstances, there is a strong demand for the development of technology for recycling wood-based waste materials generated from bark, thinned wood, pruned branches, building waste materials, and the like. In addition to the above-mentioned building waste materials, wood-based waste materials, such as palm coconut shell waste, waste leaves, and waste trunks that are cultivated in Southeast Asia, are generated in large quantities. It is rare.
木質系廃材の分解処理方法としては、菌類による生物的分解や、酸・アルカリなどによる化学的分解が多く検討されており、最近では高温高圧水による処理もいろいろ検討が進んでいる。 As a decomposition treatment method of woody waste materials, biological decomposition by fungi and chemical decomposition by acid, alkali, etc. have been studied a lot. Recently, various treatments by high-temperature high-pressure water have been studied.
特に最近では、超臨界流体を用いた分解処理方法が多く提案されている。例えば、特許文献1では超臨界水や亜臨界水による木材の高速糖化が、特許文献2では植物由来廃棄物を超臨界水あるいは亜臨界水で分解処理する方法が、特許文献3ではリグノセルロースやセルロース、含窒素多糖質類やタンパク質を超臨界アルコールや亜臨界アルコールで処理する方法が提案されている。
上述したようにエネルギー問題および環境問題の観点からも、多くの木質系廃材の分解処理方法が検討されているが、生物的分解では処理速度が遅く、工業規模での効率的な処理や処理量に課題がある。また、酸・アルカリによる化学的分解では、分解処理後の酸性液やアルカリ性液の分離や液管理、液の二次処理などの工程が必須であり、その工程に大きなエネルギーを要したり、二次的な環境問題を引き起こす可能性も考えられる。 As described above, from the viewpoint of energy problems and environmental problems, many methods for decomposing wood waste materials are being studied. However, biological decomposition is slow and the processing speed is slow and the amount of efficient processing and processing on an industrial scale. There is a problem. In addition, in chemical decomposition with acid / alkali, processes such as separation of acidic and alkaline liquids after decomposition, liquid management, and secondary treatment of liquids are indispensable. It may also cause the following environmental problems.
超臨界流体を用いた分解処理は、短時間で処理することが可能であり、水を使用する場合は、液の安全性という観点からも有望である。しかし、水で処理した場合には、処理後の分解物と水の分離工程が必須であり、場合によっては有用成分を分離した後の廃水処理が必要となる。超臨界アルコールなどのアルコール系で処理する場合、超臨界水系に比べると一般的に反応が遅くなるが、それでも工業的には十分早く処理でき、処理後の分解物とアルコールの分離は水系に比べて容易である。さらに、アルコールは水に比べて低温、低圧で超臨界状態となるため、分解処理装置コスト、ランニングコスト、処理エネルギーを小さくすることができるため、より有用と考えられる。しかし、アルコールのみで分解
処理する場合でも、廃アルコールの処理が必要となる。
The decomposition process using a supercritical fluid can be performed in a short time, and when water is used, it is promising from the viewpoint of liquid safety. However, in the case of treatment with water, a step of separating the decomposed product and water after treatment is essential, and in some cases, waste water treatment after separating useful components is necessary. When processing with an alcohol system such as a supercritical alcohol, the reaction is generally slower than with a supercritical water system, but it can still be processed industrially sufficiently, and the separation of the decomposed product and alcohol after processing is compared to that of an aqueous system. And easy. Furthermore, since alcohol becomes a supercritical state at a lower temperature and lower pressure than water, it can be considered more useful because it can reduce the cost of the decomposition treatment apparatus, the running cost, and the processing energy. However, even when decomposing with alcohol alone, it is necessary to treat waste alcohol.
以上述べてきたような従来法の欠点を考え、本発明の目的は、低コストで容易に木質系廃材を分解処理する方法を提供することである。 In view of the disadvantages of the conventional methods as described above, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for easily decomposing wood-based waste materials at low cost.
本発明は、木質系廃材を粉砕する工程と、その粉砕粉末を、超臨界状態または亜臨界状態の低級アルコールを含む二酸化炭素に接触させる工程とを有することを特徴とする木質系廃材の分解処理方法で、かかる従来の課題を解決したものである。 The present invention includes a step of pulverizing a wood-based waste material, and a step of bringing the pulverized powder into contact with carbon dioxide containing a lower alcohol in a supercritical state or a subcritical state. The method solves such a conventional problem.
なお、粉砕粉末の平均粒径が1mm以下であることが、分解処理効率向上のためには望ましい。 Note that the average particle size of the pulverized powder is preferably 1 mm or less in order to improve the decomposition efficiency.
また、低級アルコールが、メタノール、エタノール、n−プロパノール、イソプロパノールからなる群から選択される少なくとも1つのアルコールであることが好ましい。 The lower alcohol is preferably at least one alcohol selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, and isopropanol.
以上のように本発明は、木質系廃材の粉砕粉末を、超臨界状態または亜臨界状態の低級アルコールを含む二酸化炭素に接触させることによって、木質系廃材の主成分であり、一般には難分解物であるセルロースやヘミセルロース、リグニンなどを分解させ処理できるとともに、分解生成物を新たな原料として再利用することも可能となる。 As described above, the present invention is a main component of a wood-based waste material by contacting the ground powder of the wood-based waste material with carbon dioxide containing a lower alcohol in a supercritical state or a subcritical state. Cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin and the like can be decomposed and processed, and the decomposition product can be reused as a new raw material.
本発明は、超臨界や亜臨界状態の低級アルコールのみで処理する場合に比べて、アルコールの使用量を大幅に低減でき、分解後の生成物との分離が容易になる。また、二酸化炭素も超臨界状態にあるため、廃材中へのアルコールの浸透を阻害することなく、効率的にアルコールによる分解を行うことができる。 In the present invention, the amount of alcohol used can be greatly reduced as compared with the case of treating with only a supercritical or subcritical lower alcohol, and separation from the decomposed product becomes easy. Moreover, since carbon dioxide is also in a supercritical state, it can be efficiently decomposed with alcohol without inhibiting the penetration of the alcohol into the waste material.
さらに、本発明の処理方法は、廃液などの処理もほとんど必要としないため、処理エネルギーや処理コストも小さくすることができる。 Furthermore, since the processing method of the present invention requires little processing such as waste liquid, processing energy and processing cost can be reduced.
本発明に供される木質系廃材は、どのような木の廃材でも分解可能であり、杉や檜の間伐材や樹皮、剪定枝はもちろん、それらの建築廃材などから発生する木質系廃材も分解できる。また、東南アジアなどで多く栽培されているパーム椰子の椰子殻廃材や廃葉・廃幹など、どのような木でもかまわない。 The wood-based waste materials used in the present invention can be decomposed by any wood waste material, and wood-based waste materials generated from thinned wood, bark, and pruned branches of cedar and birch, as well as from such construction waste materials are also decomposed. it can. In addition, any tree may be used, such as palm coconut shell waste, waste leaves, and stems, which are widely cultivated in Southeast Asia.
このような木質系廃材の主要な構成成分はセルロース、ヘミセルロース、リグニンであり、本発明では、温度や圧力、処理時間などの分解処理条件を変えることで、どの成分をどの程度まで分解するかを調整することができる。 The main components of such wood-based waste materials are cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. In the present invention, by changing the decomposition treatment conditions such as temperature, pressure, treatment time, etc., which components are decomposed to what extent. Can be adjusted.
ただし、本発明に供される木質系廃材は、分解処理前に粉砕する必要がある。粉砕粒度はできるだけ細かい方が望ましく、できれば1mm以下が好ましい。粉砕粒度が大きいと分解に長時間を要し、十分分解できない可能性がある。また、粉砕のためには木質系廃材の含有水分濃度はできるだけ小さい方がよく、50%以下が好ましい。そのため、廃材の種類によっては予め乾燥処理を施した方がよいものもある。 However, the wood-based waste material provided for the present invention needs to be pulverized before the decomposition treatment. The pulverized particle size is desirably as fine as possible, and preferably 1 mm or less. If the pulverized particle size is large, the decomposition takes a long time and may not be sufficiently decomposed. For pulverization, the water content of the wood-based waste material should be as small as possible, preferably 50% or less. Therefore, depending on the type of waste material, it may be better to perform a drying process in advance.
粉砕処理には、一般的な粉砕処理装置である破砕機やカッターミル、ディスクミルなどを組み合わせて使用できる。 For the pulverization treatment, a general pulverization apparatus such as a crusher, a cutter mill, a disk mill, or the like can be used in combination.
本発明に供される低級アルコールは、メタノール、エタノール、n−プロパノール、イ
ソプロパノールからなる群から選択される少なくとも1つのアルコールであることが好ましい。なお、これらのアルコールは1種類あるいは2種類以上の混合液でもかまわない。
The lower alcohol used in the present invention is preferably at least one alcohol selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, and isopropanol. These alcohols may be one kind or a mixture of two or more kinds.
本発明の低級アルコールの添加量は、処理する木質系廃材の種類や量によって決められるが、少なすぎると廃材の分解が不十分となり、多すぎると分解処理後の液の処理工程や時間が多くなるため、適度な量を選択する必要がある。 The addition amount of the lower alcohol of the present invention is determined by the type and amount of the wood-based waste material to be treated. If the amount is too small, the decomposition of the waste material becomes insufficient, and if it is too much, the treatment process and time of the liquid after the decomposition treatment are large. Therefore, it is necessary to select an appropriate amount.
また、処理温度および圧力は、低級アルコールが亜臨界あるいは超臨界になる温度、圧力以上が好ましい。なお、メタノールの臨界温度は512.6K、臨界圧力は8.09MPa、エタノールの臨界温度は516.2K、臨界圧力は6.30MPa、n−プロパノールの臨界温度は536.7K、臨界圧力は5.10MPa、イソプロパノールの臨界温度は508.3K、臨界圧力は4.70MPaである。 The treatment temperature and pressure are preferably at or above the temperature and pressure at which the lower alcohol becomes subcritical or supercritical. The critical temperature of methanol is 512.6 K, the critical pressure is 8.09 MPa, the critical temperature of ethanol is 516.2 K, the critical pressure is 6.30 MPa, the critical temperature of n-propanol is 536.7 K, and the critical pressure is 5. 10 MPa, the critical temperature of isopropanol is 508.3 K, and the critical pressure is 4.70 MPa.
本発明の処理方法では、超臨界状態の二酸化炭素に、亜臨界あるいは超臨界状態の低級アルコールを添加させることによって、木質系廃材の分解と分解処理後の生成物の分離、回収、廃液処理を容易に行うことができる。 In the treatment method of the present invention, the subcritical or supercritical lower alcohol is added to the supercritical carbon dioxide to decompose the wood-based waste material and to separate, recover, and treat the waste liquid after the decomposition treatment. It can be done easily.
本発明の処理方法は、例えば、まず分解処理する木質系廃材を粉砕機などにより微粉化する。次に、その粉砕粉末と低級アルコールを耐圧容器に入れ、真空ポンプで少し真空引きを行い、内部の空気を取り除いた状態で、液化二酸化炭素を封入する。次に、この耐圧容器を加熱して低級アルコールが亜臨界あるいは超臨界状態になるよう調節して、数分〜数時間処理を行う。この処理により、木質系廃材粉末のセルロースやヘミセルロース、リグニンは、それらの低分子化合物やモノマー、オリゴマーなどに分解される。その後、耐圧容器を常温常圧に戻して開放することにより、二酸化炭素は揮発して分離される。さらに、分解生成物と低級アルコールは低級アルコールを揮発させることや蒸留操作によって分離される。特に分解生成物が低級アルコールに溶解しない固体成分の場合は、ろ過などで容易に分離できる。 以下具体的実施例を挙げて、本発明をより詳細に説明する。 In the treatment method of the present invention, for example, first, the woody waste material to be decomposed is pulverized by a pulverizer or the like. Next, the pulverized powder and lower alcohol are put in a pressure vessel, and a little vacuum is drawn with a vacuum pump, and liquefied carbon dioxide is sealed in a state where the air inside is removed. Next, the pressure vessel is heated to adjust the lower alcohol to a subcritical or supercritical state, and a treatment is performed for several minutes to several hours. Through this treatment, cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin in the woody waste powder are decomposed into their low molecular compounds, monomers, oligomers, and the like. Thereafter, the carbon dioxide is volatilized and separated by opening the pressure vessel back to room temperature and normal pressure. Further, the decomposition product and the lower alcohol are separated by volatilizing the lower alcohol or by a distillation operation. In particular, when the decomposition product is a solid component that does not dissolve in the lower alcohol, it can be easily separated by filtration or the like. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to specific examples.
本実施例では、木質系廃材として200×300×50mmの板状に切り出した杉材を用いた。 In this example, cedar wood cut out in a plate shape of 200 × 300 × 50 mm was used as the woody waste material.
この杉材を、φ10mmのスクリーンを付けた槇野産業製カッターミルVM−22で数mm程度に粗粉砕した。次に、その粗粉砕品を槇野産業製微粉砕機DD−2−3.7により、さらに粉砕を行った。なお、スクリーンはΦ0.35mmを用いた。その結果、平均粒径約0.15mmの微粉末が得られた。 This cedar was coarsely pulverized to about several millimeters by a cutter mill VM-22 manufactured by Sugano Sangyo with a screen of φ10 mm. Next, the coarsely pulverized product was further pulverized by a fine pulverizer DD-2-3.7 manufactured by Hadano Sangyo. The screen used was Φ0.35 mm. As a result, a fine powder having an average particle size of about 0.15 mm was obtained.
この微粉末10gを耐熱・耐圧容器に入れ、メタノール約5mlを添加して、真空ポンプで約20秒真空引きを行った。次に、この耐熱・耐圧容器を氷水で冷却して、そこに液化二酸化炭素約50gを注入した。その耐熱・耐圧容器を錫浴槽に入れて350℃まで加温し、約23MPaにして10分処理した。また、同様の条件で30分および1時間処理したサンプルも作成した。 10 g of this fine powder was placed in a heat-resistant / pressure-resistant vessel, about 5 ml of methanol was added, and vacuuming was performed for about 20 seconds with a vacuum pump. Next, this heat-resistant / pressure-resistant vessel was cooled with ice water, and about 50 g of liquefied carbon dioxide was injected therein. The heat-resistant / pressure-resistant container was placed in a tin bath, heated to 350 ° C., and treated at about 23 MPa for 10 minutes. Moreover, the sample processed for 30 minutes and 1 hour on the same conditions was also created.
その後、耐熱・耐圧容器を水浴槽に移して常温まで冷却してから、二酸化炭素を徐々に放出した。耐熱・耐圧容器の圧力が常圧に戻ってから、耐熱・耐圧容器の蓋を開けた。 Thereafter, the heat-resistant / pressure-resistant container was transferred to a water bath and cooled to room temperature, and then carbon dioxide was gradually released. After the pressure of the heat and pressure resistant container returned to normal pressure, the lid of the heat and pressure resistant container was opened.
10分処理した場合は、わずかな残渣物と濃茶色の液体が残っていたが、30分以上処理した場合固形物は殆どなくなり、濃茶色の液体のみとなっていた。わずかな残渣は濾紙により濾過して液体と固体を分離した。これらの液体を高速液体クロマトグラフィーで分析した。 10分処理した液体には、リグニン由来と考えられるコニフェリルアルコール
やp−クマリルアルコールなどが、また、セルロースおよびヘミセルロース由来と考えられるグルコース、フルクトース、セロビオース、エリトロースや糖のメチル化誘導体などが含まれていた。
When treated for 10 minutes, a slight residue and a dark brown liquid remained, but when treated for 30 minutes or more, almost no solid matter disappeared and only a dark brown liquid was obtained. The slight residue was filtered through filter paper to separate the liquid and solid. These liquids were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. The liquid treated for 10 minutes includes coniferyl alcohol and p-coumaryl alcohol, which are considered to be derived from lignin, and glucose, fructose, cellobiose, erythrose, and methylated derivatives of sugar, which are considered to be derived from cellulose and hemicellulose. It was.
30分以上処理した液体には、上記分解生成物よりも酢酸が多く含まれていることが判った。 It was found that the liquid treated for 30 minutes or more contained more acetic acid than the decomposition product.
この結果より、上記条件で10分処理することで、有用な分解生成物が、また、30分以上処理すると分解がさらに進んで酢酸が得られることが判った。 From this result, it was found that by treating for 10 minutes under the above conditions, a useful decomposition product could be further decomposed and acetic acid could be obtained by treating for 30 minutes or more.
このように、分解条件を変更することで得られる分解生成物を調整でき、再利用のための目的生成物を調整できる。 Thus, the decomposition product obtained by changing decomposition conditions can be adjusted, and the target product for reuse can be adjusted.
本実施例では、木質系廃材として、170×320×40mmの板状に切り出したパーム椰子廃幹を用いた。この廃幹には水分が約70%含まれていたため、乾燥機で水分を20%程度まで減少させた。 In this example, a palm palm waste trunk cut into a plate shape of 170 × 320 × 40 mm was used as the wood-based waste material. Since this waste trunk contained about 70% of moisture, the moisture was reduced to about 20% with a dryer.
次に、実施例1と同様の粉砕方法で粉砕すると、平均粒径約0.3mmの微粉末が得られた。 Next, when pulverized by the same pulverization method as in Example 1, fine powder having an average particle size of about 0.3 mm was obtained.
この微粉末を実施例1と同じ条件で10分間処理した。その結果、極微量の残渣物と濃茶色の液体が残った。その液体には、実施例1と同様のリグニン由来と考えられるコニフェリルアルコールやp−クマリルアルコールなどが、また、セルロースおよびヘミセルロース由来と考えられるグルコースやフルクトース、セロビオース、糖のメチル化誘導体などが含まれていた。 This fine powder was treated for 10 minutes under the same conditions as in Example 1. As a result, a very small amount of residue and a dark brown liquid remained. Examples of the liquid include coniferyl alcohol and p-coumaryl alcohol which are considered to be derived from lignin as in Example 1, and glucose, fructose, cellobiose and sugar methylated derivatives which are considered to be derived from cellulose and hemicellulose. It was included.
本実施例では、木質系廃材として実施例1と同じ方法で粉砕した杉材を用いた。 In this example, cedar wood crushed by the same method as in Example 1 was used as the woody waste material.
低級アルコールとしてメタノールを用いて、処理温度を200℃、250℃、300℃に変更した以外は、実施例1と同様の条件で10分間処理した。その際の圧力は各温度で各々約17MPa、20MPa、22MPaであった。 The treatment was carried out for 10 minutes under the same conditions as in Example 1 except that methanol was used as the lower alcohol and the treatment temperature was changed to 200 ° C., 250 ° C., and 300 ° C. The pressure at that time was about 17 MPa, 20 MPa, and 22 MPa at each temperature.
この結果、200℃では、粉砕粉末はほとんど変わらず、黄色の液体が得られた。250℃では約50%程度の残渣と濃茶色の液体が得られ、300℃では実施例1とほぼ同様のわずかな残渣と濃茶色の液体が得られた。これらの残渣は濾紙により分離して、実施例1と同様に液体の分析を行った。 As a result, at 200 ° C., the pulverized powder was hardly changed, and a yellow liquid was obtained. About 250% of the residue and a dark brown liquid were obtained at 250 ° C., and a slight residue and a dark brown liquid almost the same as in Example 1 were obtained at 300 ° C. These residues were separated by filter paper, and the liquid was analyzed in the same manner as in Example 1.
200℃で処理した液体はメタノールがメインで、若干の油分とわずかなコニフェリルアルコールやp−クマリルアルコール、単糖類、糖のメチル化誘導体が含まれていた。250℃で処理した液体には、リグニンやセルロース構成分子の低分子成分やオリゴマーが多く、コニフェリルアルコールやp−クマリルアルコール、グルコース、セロビオース、糖のメチル化誘導体なども含まれていた。300℃で処理した液体には実施例1と同様のコニフェリルアルコールやp−クマリルアルコール、糖のメチル化誘導体などが多く含まれていた。 The liquid treated at 200 ° C. was mainly methanol, and contained a small amount of oil and a small amount of coniferyl alcohol, p-coumaryl alcohol, monosaccharides, and sugar methylated derivatives. The liquid treated at 250 ° C. contained many low-molecular components and oligomers of lignin and cellulose constituent molecules, and also contained coniferyl alcohol, p-coumaryl alcohol, glucose, cellobiose, and methylated derivatives of sugar. The liquid treated at 300 ° C. contained a lot of coniferyl alcohol, p-coumaryl alcohol, sugar methylated derivatives and the like as in Example 1.
この結果より、分解を促進させるためには、低級アルコールの超臨界状態まで温度を上げた方がよいと考えられる。 From this result, in order to promote decomposition, it is considered better to raise the temperature to the supercritical state of the lower alcohol.
本実施例では、木質系廃材として実施例1と同じ方法で粉砕した杉材を用いた。 In this example, cedar wood crushed by the same method as in Example 1 was used as the woody waste material.
低級アルコールとしてイソプロパノールを用いて、実施例1と同様の条件で10分間処理した。その際の圧力は約21MPaであった。 The treatment was performed for 10 minutes under the same conditions as in Example 1 using isopropanol as the lower alcohol. The pressure at that time was about 21 MPa.
この結果、わずかな残渣と濃茶色の液体が得られ、残渣は濾紙により分離した。液体中には実施例1と同様のコニフェリルアルコール、p−クマリルアルコール、グルコース、フルクトース、セロビオース、エリトロースや糖のメチル化誘導体などが含まれていた。 As a result, a slight residue and a dark brown liquid were obtained, and the residue was separated by filter paper. The liquid contained coniferyl alcohol, p-coumaryl alcohol, glucose, fructose, cellobiose, erythrose, and methylated derivatives of sugar as in Example 1.
以上の実施例では処理している間、静置していたが、この方法に限定されるものではなく、例えば、攪拌したり、超音波をかけるなどして液の浸透性を促進させても勿論かまわない。 In the above examples, while being treated, it was allowed to stand, but it is not limited to this method. For example, the liquid may be promoted by stirring or applying ultrasonic waves. Of course it doesn't matter.
以上のように本発明は、環境に大きな影響を及ぼしている木質系廃材を容易に分解させることができ、かつ、分解後の生成物の回収を容易に行うことができる。さらに、処理後の廃液などの処理も容易に行えるため、従来の超臨界水や亜臨界水を用いた方法に比べて、大幅に装置を簡略化でき、産業上有効である。
As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to easily decompose a wood-based waste material that has a great influence on the environment, and to easily recover a product after the decomposition. Furthermore, since the waste liquid after the treatment can be easily treated, the apparatus can be greatly simplified and industrially effective as compared with the conventional method using supercritical water or subcritical water.
