Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research is to synthesize chemical substances and fuel gases from cellulose or lignin in inedible biomass under conditions that rely as little as possible on a catalyst and biodegradation. A pseudo-catalysis reaction at a plasma interface which incorporates a great variety of radicals by using in-liquid plasma is proposed for decomposition of substances that are normally very difficult to decompose. Cellulose suspensions can be decomposed by using the in-liquid plasma method to produce H2 gas along with 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), furfural.In these findings, one-step phenol production from a water-benzene mixture was achieved by using DVD plasma.
