Abstract
The kinetics of total organic carbon (TOC) destruction during supercritical water gasification (SCWG) of glucose were studied at 400–500°C and 25 MPa in a 600 mL batch reactor. Both TOC and water concentrations are critical for the conversion of TOC in supercritical water, especially at longer residence times. Initially, it was assumed that the TOC destruction reaction followed first-order kinetics ignoring the water concentration. However, experimental results showed that the feed-to-water ratio had a significant effect on TOC decomposition. Considering the water concentration in the reaction, the reaction orders of TOC (2.35) and water (1.45) were calculated using nonlinear regression analysis (the Runge-Kutta method). The estimated pre-exponential factor (k’) and activation energy (E) were calculated to be 8.1 ± 2/min and 90.37 ± 9.38 kJ/mol respectively.
期刊介绍:
As the leading archival journal devoted exclusively to chemical kinetics, the International Journal of Chemical Kinetics publishes original research in gas phase, condensed phase, and polymer reaction kinetics, as well as biochemical and surface kinetics. The Journal seeks to be the primary archive for careful experimental measurements of reaction kinetics, in both simple and complex systems. The Journal also presents new developments in applied theoretical kinetics and publishes large kinetic models, and the algorithms and estimates used in these models. These include methods for handling the large reaction networks important in biochemistry, catalysis, and free radical chemistry. In addition, the Journal explores such topics as the quantitative relationships between molecular structure and chemical reactivity, organic/inorganic chemistry and reaction mechanisms, and the reactive chemistry at interfaces.
