Determination of Carbon Functional Groups in Pyrolysis Bio-Oils using 13C NMR: Laboratory Analytical Procedure (LAP)
Pyrolysis is a process that can be used to convert biomass to solid, liquid and gaseous products for use as renewable chemicals and fuels. The liquid fraction, known as “bio-oil” is complex and challenging to characterize, particularly by means of GC/MS, GPC, LC and FT-IR. NMR is capable of analyzing whole bio-oil samples and can provide quantitative results to characterize different functional groups or types of carbon present in bio-oil. This Laboratory Analytical Procedure (LAP) quantifies different carbon functional groups in whole bio-oil samples. This information can be used for comparisons between different pyrolysis experimental conditions or different upgrading processes and catalysts, and also allow for comparisons between bio-oils produced at different facilities.
