Ethylene gas was produced by thermal decomposition of cherry’s fallen leaves. Cherry’s fallen leaves was put in large test tube and it was heated by infrared heater, and was raising each 50 °C for 30 minutes and it was heated even 500 °C. Gas was generated much so at high temperature. When natural zeolite was added in the state which melted by zinc chloride and tin (II) chloride, the generated gas was increased at low temperature compared with the case only fallen leaves. It was thought that hydrogen band of cellulose could be cut with zinc chloride and tin (II) chloride and the reaction of zeolite with fallen leaves became easy.
Lignin reagent was put in regular size test tube, was heated by electric furnace at 500 °C and the generated ethylene gas was measured by gas chromatography. When natural zeolite was added in the state which melted by zinc chloride, the generated ethylene gas was increased.
