Fan, Y. published the artcileThe influence of lipids on the fate of nitrogen during hydrothermal liquefaction of protein-containing biomass, Formula: C7H10N2, the main research area is lactose lysine palmitic acid biomass hydrothermal liquefaction emulsification.
Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of carbohydrate (lactose), protein (lysine), and lipid (palmitic acid) surrogates was carried out in batch reactors for 20 min in a temperature range of 250-350°C in order to understand interactions in hydrothermal reactions. A binary mixture of lysine and lactose leads to a higher bio-oil yield when compared to experiments made with isolated compounds, indicating a relevant contribution by Maillard reactions (MRs). Emulsification happens to proteins and lipids during HTL, making it difficult to sep. and collect bio-oil products at low temperatures When testing the ternary mixture, the nitrogen content of the bio-oil is negligibly affected by the changes of temperature, presenting a constant value of 5.3 weight %. However, adding lipids dramatically changes the bio-oil composition This is indicated by an increasing amount of fatty acid amides and a decrease in Maillard reaction products, suggesting a strong competition between amidation and MRs. A reaction scheme was proposed based on the final products and assumed reaction pathways. These findings here can contribute to a better understanding of the HTL of biomasses with complex organic compositions
