Adsorption Study of Lignin Removal from Recycled Alkali Black Liquor by Adsorption Resins for Improved Cellulase Hydrolysis of Corn Straw

Previous studies showed that aromatic compounds such as lignin, phenols, and furans were main inhibitors of cellulase hydrolysis in recycled alkali black liquor (RBL), which should be removed to improve alkali utilization. In this study, three polymeric resins, XAD-4, XAD-16N, and XAD-7HP, were eval...

description Previous studies showed that aromatic compounds such as lignin, phenols, and furans were main inhibitors of cellulase hydrolysis in recycled alkali black liquor (RBL), which should be removed to improve alkali utilization. In this study, three polymeric resins, XAD-4, XAD-16N, and XAD-7HP, were evaluated for their abilities to remove lignin from alkali black liquor recycled at the third time. Adsorption conditions of adsorbent dose and equilibrium time, isotherms, and kinetics were investigated. Of three tested adsorbents, XAD-16N was the most efficient, which can remove 89.84% of lignin after adsorption at an adsorbent-to-solution ratio of 1:4 for 2.5 h. Pseudo-second-order model was efficient to represent XAD-16N and XAD-7HP adsorption kinetics. Adsorption behavior of XAD-4 on RBL was fitted better to Langmuir model, while XAD-16N and XAD-7HP adsorption were more consistent with Freundlich model. The cellulase hydrolysis rate of corn straw treated with RBL after XAD-16N adsorption combined with ozone was 86.89%, which was only 0.89% lower than that of sodium hydroxide combined with ozone treatment. Structure characterization proved that the damage of XAD-16N adsorbed RBL to corn straw was similar to that of sodium hydroxide. It indicated that adsorption was effective in inhibitor removal from RBL to improve alkali utilization.
