P-21 Interaction between Glucose and Guaiacol in Supercritical Water Gasification

Abstract

In supercritical water gasification of biomass, lignin retards gasification of biomass. In this study, we investigated the decomposition of glucose with guaiacol, model compound of lignin, in supercritical water. The pressure was kept constant at 25 MPa. Interactive effect made char production from glucose at subcritical temperature and that from guaiacol at supercritical temperature suppressed.
