Kinetics of xylose dehydration into furfural in acetic acid

In this paper kinetics of xylose dehydration into furfural using acetic acid as catalyst was studied comprehensively and systematically. The reaction order of both furfural and xylose dehydration was determined and the reaction activation energy was obtained by nonlinear regression. The effect of ac...

Description
Summary:In this paper kinetics of xylose dehydration into furfural using acetic acid as catalyst was studied comprehensively and systematically. The reaction order of both furfural and xylose dehydration was determined and the reaction activation energy was obtained by nonlinear regression. The effect of acetic acid concentration was also investi- gated. Reaction rate constants were gained. Reaction rate constant of xylose dehydration is kl = 4.189 × 10^10[A]^0.1676 axp (-108.5×1000/RT), reaction rate constant of furfural degradation is k2=1.271×10^10[A]0.1375 exp (-63.413×1000/RT)and reaction rate constant of condensation reaction is k3-3.4051×10^10[A]0.1676 exp (-104.99×1000/RT), Based on this, the kinetics equation of xylose dehydration into furfural in acetic acid was set up according to theory of Dunlop and Furfural generating rate equation is d[F]/dt=K1[x]0e-k1t-k2[F]-k3[X]0E-k1 1[F]
