Abstract
A highly efficient reactor with a stirring device was specially designed with the intent of performing the hydrolysis of pure crystalline cellulose using a carbon-based solid acid catalyst. This catalyst comprised an amorphous carbon-based material bearing –SO3H, –COOH and –OH groups. The stirring apparatus had seven blades coated with polytetrafluoroethylene and arranged axially at regular intervals with a 60° offset. This design proved highly effective, providing double the glucose yield compared with conventional stirring systems. The basic properties of this novel reactor were investigated and analyzed and are discussed herein.
