Tiivistelmä Biomassan konvertointimenetelmät mahdollistavat biotalouden hengen mukaisesti uusia ratkaisuja kemikaalien ja materiaalien kestävään tuotantoon sekä biomassan energiakäyttöön eri muodoissa (kuten pelletit, biopolttoaineet ja biokaasu). Lignoselluloosapohjaista, uusiutuvaa biomassaa, kuten tässä työssä tutkittua ohran olkea, on runsaasti saatavilla. Lignoselluloosa onkin yksi lupaavimmista raaka-aineista korvaamaan fossiilisia polttoaineita ja vähentämään kasvihuonekaasupäästöjä. Väitöskirjatutkimus antaa uutta tietoa ohran oljen mekaanis–katalyyttisestä käsittelystä, mikä on suhteellisen uusi menetelmä biomassan katalyyttisessä muokkauksessa. Menetelmässä yhdistetään kemiallinen katalyysi ja mekaaninen muokkaus (jauhatus) kuulamyllyllä. Lignoselluloosa (ohran olki) impregnoitiin tai sekoitettiin tutkitun katalyytin (muurahaishappo, etikkahappo, rikkihappo, oksaalihappodihydraatti, kaliumpyrosulfaatti) kanssa ja käsiteltiin erilaisissa mekaanis–katalyyttisissä olosuhteissa. Lignoselluloosan selektiivinen depolymerointi muodosti vesiliukoisia oligosakkarideja ja edelleen hydrolyysin kautta pelkistyneitä sokereita (pääasiassa ksyloosia, galaktoosia, arabinoosia ja glukoosia), joita voidaan käyttää biopolttoaineiden ja -kemikaalien valmistuksessa. Tutkimuksen tulosten perusteella rikkihappokatalyytillä saatiin 53,4 massa-% ohran oljen sisältämistä pelkistyneistä sokereista vapautettua lyhyillä käsittelyajoilla. Lisäksi sivutuotteiden muodostuminen oli vähäistä. Vastaavasti oksaalihappodihydraatti (sokerisaanto 42,4 massa-%) ja kaliumpyrosulfaatti (sokerisaanto 39,7 massa-%) toimivat uusina katalyytteinä hyvin, mutta vaativat rikkihappokatalyyttiä pidemmät jauhatusajat. Sen sijaan muurahaishapolla ja etikkahapolla sokerisaanto oli erittäin alhainen (alle 10 massa-%) mekaanis–katalyyttisessä käsittelyssä. Tutkimuksessa todettiin, että voimakas jauhatus vaikutti selkeästi reaktiolämpötilan nousuun käsittelyn aikana, mikä edisti korkeampaa sokerisaantoa. Vastaavasti sokerisaantoa voitiin parantaa katalyyttimäärällä ja happamuudella. Tulokset osoittavat, että näiden muuttujien tasapaino on ratkaisevaa ohran oljen tehokkaan katalyyttisen muuntamisen kannalta

Master's thesis presents data of a study of crop germination, density, weed and earthworm population in fields varying in intensity of tillage, straw and green fertilizer coverage. Stationary two-factor experiment is being carried out since 1999. Studies were carried out from 2011 – 2012 . The experiment was carried out according to the following scheme: factor A: Straw incorporation: straw removal (-Š), straw shredded and spread out (+ Š). Factor B: tillage systems. The research found that the number of barley sprouts on the third day from the beginning of germination is essentially influenced by tillage intensity. In area, where the straw were chopped and spread (+Š) substantially increased the number of sprouts in comparison with deep plowing (GA), has been determined in the fields that have been consistently levelled using harrow tines and flatcutting disc implements (KL). Area without straw (-Š) in comparison with deep ploughing (GA), substantially more barley seeds germinated in shallow ploughed (SA), shallow tine cultivator tines and flatcutting disc implements (KL) and the uncultivated stubble (ND) fields. Tenth day after the beginning of germination area with chopped or spread straw and area without straw in the background substantially less barley plants found in fields that have been consistently leveled harrow (RK). In the area with straw as well as in the area where sown in no-till stubble (ND) substantial differences were dicovered. Number of productive stems... [to full text]
Moraes, Elisângela de Jesus Cândido. "Estudo de viabilidade econômica da produção de xilitol a partir de hidrolisado hemicelulósico de palha de cevada." Universidade de São Paulo, 2008. http://www.teses.usp.br/teses/disponiveis/97/97131/tde-27092012-103748/.
Lignocellulosic materials, such as barley straw, are sources of low cost and with potential applications in bioprocesses. The hemicellulosic fraction of these materials can be hydrolyzed using mineral acids to release xylose, its major sugar component, which is substrate to bioproduction of xylitol. The cellulosic fraction can be delignified using alkalis followed by treatment with mineral acids to release glucose. The main objective of this research was to evaluate the economic bioproduction of xylitol from hemicellulosic fraction of barley straw. Chemical characterization of barley straw revealed the presence of 38.55% cellulose, 21.41% hemicellulose and 19.90% lignin. After the characterization stage, the barley straw was hydrolyzed with sulphuric acid for the extraction of xylose using a 24-1 factorial design. The optimum condition was temperature 120ºC, acid concentration 2.6%, reaction time 20 min and solid:liquid ratio 1:13.5. Under this condition the xylose extraction yield was about 84.38%. The celolignin was then submitted to a new hydrolyze according to a 24-1 factorial design and the best condition for maximum glucose extraction yield (67.96%) was temperature 179ºC, acid concentration 3%, reaction time 30 min and solid:liquid ratio 1:8. After hydrolysis, the hemicellulosic hydrolysate was submitted to a detoxification step to eliminate the compounds inhibitory to the microbial metabolism and fermentation with the yeast Candida guilliermondii while the cellulosic hydrolysate, rich in glucose, was used to supplement the fermentation medium consisting of the hemicellulosic hydrolysate as glucose was one of the nutritional parameters evaluated in the factorial design 26-2 employed to the fermentations carried out in Erlenmeyer flasks. These experiments were conducted for 72 h and the best culture conditions determined by the model were: 3.0 g/L ammonium sulfate, 1.0 g/L calcium chloride, 20.0 g/L solution of rice straw and hemicellulosic hydrolysate containing 60 g/L xylose. The initial cell concentration in each flask was 1.0 g/L. Under this condition the xylose consumption and conversion efficiency was 96.59 and 59.98%, respectively. The volumetric productivity of xylitol was 0.48 g/L.h. To evaluate the effect of oxygen availability on the bioconversion of xylose into xylitol It was realized fermentations employing the best culture conditions obtaining under agitation in 1L reaction where the parameters agitation and aeration were studied using a 22 factorial design. According to the results the maximum values of production, volumetric productivity and the factor of xylose concentration into xylitol were 51,28 g/L, 0.71 g/L.h and 0.88 g/g, respectively, when the agitation was 200 rpm and aeration 0.9 vvm (KLa≅18h-1) in 72 h fermentation. The fermentation conditions established during the utilization of 1 L reactor were then employed to evaluate the process from a reactor of higher capacity (16 L), and KLa was use as criteria to scale up. Production, volumetric productivity and the factor of xylose conversion into xylitol were 55.63 g/L, 0.77 g/L.h and 0.91 g/g, respectively, corresponding to a conversion efficiency of 99.23%. The fermented broth obtained from this fermentation was centrifuged and clarified. An economic study was realized for each stage of the process, considering equipment, reagents of the culture media, electric energy consumption and water utilized in the process, as well as equipment. It was found that the value of biotechnological produced xylitol from hemicellulosic hydrolysate of barley straw is R$ 1.389.05.

In this dissertation, the materials corn straw and barley bagasse were investigated as alternative adsorbents for removal of the carbaryl pesticide from aqueous medium. For this, both materials were ground to obtain uniform particles (granulometry between 20 and 48 mesh) and treated with hydrated ethyl alcohol. The quantification of the carbaryl pesticide was made by High Efficiency Liquid Chromatography with UV-vis detector. The values of LD and LQ for the determination of the carbaryl pesticide by liquid chromatography using the method used were 0.01 mg L-1 and 0.10 mg L-1, respectively. The characterization of the adsorbent materials by FTIR showed the presence of the functional groups: hydroxyl, carbonyl and methyl, very common in lignocellulosic materials. The pH at the zero loading point (pHPCZ) was 7.08 for barley bagasse and 6.44 for corn straw. The adsorption capacity of the investigated materials was evaluated under different parameters such as material dose (g L-1), contact time between the pesticide solution and the adsorbent material (min) and the concentration of the pesticide in the solution (mg L-1). An alternative adsorption procedure was also proposed with the adsorbents packaged in a column where different doses of the adsorbents were evaluated and finally the adsorption process was evaluated using natural water samples. From the study of the dose of the materials the dose of 20 g L-1, equivalent to 200 mg of the adsorbent material in 10 mL of solution was selected, where 45.1% of the carbaryl was obtained when the barley bagasse was used and 49.2% when corn straw was used. For both adsorbents the kinetic study showed that the adsorption of the carbaryl agrochemical is best represented by the Avrami kinetic model, indicating that the adsorption of the carbaryl is not constant, but follows multiple orders. The maximum adsorption capacity (Qmax) was obtained by the construction of adsorption isotherms, where it was verified that the experimental data of the process of adsorption of the carbaryl by the barley bagasse is better represented by the Langmuir model providing a value of Qmax of 6, 5244 mg g-1. For corn straw, the Sips model was the most adequate with a Qmax value of 1.2625 mg g -1. In the column adsorption procedure the barley bagasse was efficient in all the doses evaluated, obtaining practically the same rate of removal as the procedure performed in batch mode, however in a much shorter time. As for the adsorbent corn straw, the removal through the column procedure was much less effective, suggesting that for this material the batch procedure is more adequate. In the adsorption study using natural water samples as an aqueous matrix, it was verified that the adsorption process of the carbaryl by both adsorbents can be affected by the pH of the medium and also by the presence of other compounds present in the aqueous matrix. In general, the results indicate that the barleybagasse and corn straw materials can be used as adsorbent materials in the treatment of aqueous medium contaminated with the carbaryl pesticide.
Nesta dissertação, os materiais palha de milho e bagaço de cevada foram investigados como adsorventes alternativos para remoção do agrotóxico carbaril de meio aquoso. Para isso, ambos materiais foram triturados para obtenção de partículas uniformes (granulometria entre 20 e 48 mesh) e tratados com álcool etílico hidratado. A quantificação do agrotóxico carbaril foi feita por Cromatografia Líquida de Alta Eficiência com detector UV-vis. Os valores de LD e LQ para a determinação do agrotóxico carbaril por cromatografia líquida, através do método empregado, foram 0,01 mg L-1 e 0,10 mg L-1, respectivamente. A caracterização dos materiais adsorventes por FTIR mostrou a presença dos grupos funcionais: hidroxila, carbonila e metila, bastante comuns em materiais lignocelulósicos. O pH no ponto de carga zero (pHPCZ) foi 7,08 para o bagaço de cevada e 6,44 para a palha de milho. A capacidade de adsorção dos materiais investigados foi avaliada sob diferentes parâmetros como dose do material (g L-1), tempo de contato entre a solução do agrotóxico e o material adsorvente (min) e a concentração do agrotóxico na solução (mg L-1). Foi proposto também um procedimento alternativo de adsorção com os adsorventes empacotados em uma coluna onde avaliou-se diferentes doses dos adsorventes e por fim avaliou-se o processo de adsorção utilizando amostras de água natural. A partir do estudo da dose dos materiais foi selecionada a dose de 20 g L-1, equivalente a 200 mg do material adsorvente em 10 mL de solução, onde foi obtida remoção de 45,1% do carbaril quando foi utilizado o bagaço de cevada e 49,2% quando foi usada a palha de milho. Para ambos os adsorventes o estudo cinético mostrou que a adsorção do agrotóxico carbaril é melhor representada pelo modelo cinético de Avrami, indicando que a adsorção do carbaril não é constante, mas segue múltiplas ordens. A capacidade máxima de adsorção (Qmáx) foi obtida pela construção de isotermas de adsorção, onde verificou-se que os dados experimentais do processo de adsorção do carbaril pelo bagaço de cevada é mais bem representado pelo modelo de Langmuir fornecendo um valor de Qmáx de 6,5244 mg g-1. Já para a palha de milho o modelo de Sips mostrou-se o mais adequado com um valor Qmáx de 1,2625 mg g-1. No procedimento de adsorção em coluna o bagaço de cevada mostrou-se eficiente em todas as doses avaliadas, obtendo praticamente a mesma taxa de remoção que o procedimento realizado em modo batelada, no entanto em um tempo bem menor. Já para o adsorvente palha de milho, a remoção através do procedimento em coluna foi bem menos efetiva, sugerindo que para este material o procedimento em batelada é mais adequado. No estudo de adsorção utilizando amostras de água natural como matriz aquosa, verificou-se que o processo de adsorção do carbaril por ambos os adsorventes pode ser afetado pelo pH do meio e também pela presença de outros compostos presentes na matriz aquosa. De um modo geral os resultados obtidos indicam que os materiais bagaço de cevada e palha de milho podem ser utilizados como materiais adsorventes no tratamento de meio aquoso contaminado com o agrotóxico carbaril.

The escalating global demand for energy and mounting environmental concerns have propelled the exploration of sustainable alternatives to conventional fuel sources. Biomass stands out as a promising renewable resource capable of alleviating the worldwide energy crisis while addressing environmental sustainability. This study delves into the combustion behavior of three distinct biomass: forest-derived wood, herbaceous miscanthus, and agricultural residue barley straw. By scrutinizing individual particle behavior during combustion, the research seeks to unravel the fundamental processes governing biomass conversion into energy and understand the unique combustion behaviors of different biomass sources. The complexity of biomass combustion, influenced by factors like chemical composition, elemental content, and combustion stages, lies at the heart of the investigation. Initial findings highlight potential catalytic effects of minor elements like sodium (Na) and potassium (K) on combustion behavior, prompting the need for in-depth studies to fully comprehend their influence. Through comprehensive characterization, the study identifies three critical combustion stages for biomass particles: humidity loss, devolatilization, and char oxidation, revealing significant distinctions in ignition points among the investigated biomass sources. The thesis aims to significantly contribute to understanding biomass-based energy generation and its environmental implications, providing a foundation for future advancements in biomass utilization, energy production, and sustainable practices
