Investigation the Potential of Sugarcane Bagasse for the Production of 5-HydroMethylFurfural
Abstract
The aim of this study was to invesigate the potential of sugarcane bagasse for 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF). Nowadays, food crops such as glucose and fructose were the main derived for the production of 5-HMF. The potential of sugarcane bagasse to replace the consumption of glucose and fructose was investigated through studies. Consequently, the primary aim of this research was to explore the feasibility of utilizing bagasse as a source for generating 5-HMF.Three experimental parameters were investigated during the hydrolysis and 5-HMF production. These are temperature (108–192)oC, reaction time (1-3)hr and concentration of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) as catalyst (0.5-1.5)M. The conversion of bagasse to 5-HMF can be achieved using the following processes; firstly pretreatment of bagasse was removed different contaminates, dried (12°C for 24hr) and ground to the uniform particle size (2 mm). The final result of 5-HMF was studied using a sulfuric acid in water: toluene system with ratio of (60:60 V/V) and Sodium Chloride (NaCl). Response Surface Methodology (RSM) employed the Central Composit Design (CCD) was used to optimize the yield. The optimum result was obtained at 181.32oC temperature, 2.62hr reaction time and 1.50M sulfuric acid concentration. The optimum result of 5- HMF is 32.6337% w/w was achieved under these conditions. Generally, the potential of sugarcane bagasse for the production of 5-HMF could be an option as energy source and other uses.
