USE OF LIGNINICA-BASED COMPOUNDS AS BIOFUEL ADDITIVES

The increase in the price of the PETROLEO, its agglomating future and the issuance of unveiled gasses that are accelerating the heating of the PLANET, make it necessary to search for the development of new energy sources like biomasa, may be an additional source of chemical products._x000D_ the use of second-generation biocarburantes, BIOMASE PROVENENTS that are not used as food, IMPLEMENTES IN MUCHUS CASES IN THE PROPERTY OF THE MISMES. This is true in the case of the BIODIESEL, which must be combined with a norm-regulated parametres for its trade (EN14214 in EUROPE)._x000D_ in the present project it is intended to study the processing process of three LIGNOCELULOSIC BIOMASE PROCESSING PROCEDURES. THE OBJECTIVE IS TO LEAD TO THE DECOMPOSITION OF LIGNIN, THE NATURAL POLYMER THAT ACTS AS CEMENTANT OF CELLULOSE, IN WHICH THERE ARE UNITS OF AROMATIC COMPOUNDS THAT CAN HAVE GREAT VALUE AS ADDITIVES FOR BIOFUELS. THESE THREE MATERIALS ARE BIO-OIL FROM THE RAPID PYROLYSIS OF WOOD, LIQUOR EXHAUSTED FROM THE CELLULOSE PRODUCTION PROCESS AND RESIDUE FROM THE PRODUCTION OF CELULOSICO BIOETHANOL. In addition, the development of glycerin, the sub-product of the biodehysel product, with the end of expanding the compounds that affect the additives._x000D_ the integration of the development of these lignin sources in a bio-efinery would serve to improve the economy of the same, thus helping the completion of the BIOENERGY SYSTEMS to be achieved in Europe within the 2020 HORIZON FRAMEWORK.
