Abstract

The radio-frequency plasma thermolysis reactor was employed for converting the biomass waste of rice straw to bioenergy. Various catalysts of K₂CO₃, ZnO, Na₂CO₃, Fe₂O₃, NiO/CaO-Al₂O₃, Fe₂O₃-Cr₂O₃ and Al₂O₃ were used to assist the plasma process. Various gas products of H₂, CO, CH₄, and non-methane hydrocarbons were detected during the catalytic plasma thermolysis. Among these catalysts, the use of K₂CO₃ catalyst gave the highest thermolysis conversion of 66.5 wt %. NiO/CaO-Al₂O₃ and Fe₂O₃-Cr₂O₃ catalysts had the highest performances in respect to the yield of H₂ and CH₄, respectively. The improved yields of H₂ and CH₄ were 14.3 and 13.9% for NiO/CaO-Al₂O₃ catalyst and 5.2 and 31.7% for Fe₂O₃-Cr₂O₃ catalyst, respectively. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 103rd AWMA Annual Conference and Exhibition (Calgary, Alberta, Canada 6/22-25/2010).
