Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We aimed to develop a technology to efficiently convert non-food biomass which is hard to decompose into useful fuel by controlling photocatalytic oxidizing reaction according to photocatalytic material, irradiation wavelength and oxidizing gas concentration changes. It was found that acetone, methyl formate, methyl acetate, isobutene and methyl furan which are not produced by ordinary photocatalytic oxidative decomposition are produced when acetaldehyde and toluene are used as basic organic gases. Furthermore, it was found that aldehydes and acetone were newly produced, when oxidatively controlled degradation was carried out using cellulose as a starting material, and saccharides were not detected as a products.
