Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to explore the application of a deep eutectic solvent, synthesized from lactic acid and choline chloride, in combination with a pre-treatment involving ZSM-5 catalytic fast pyrolysis, aimed at upgrading the quality of bio-oil. Characterization results demonstrate a reduction in lignin content post-treatment, alongside a significant decrease in carboxyls and carbonyls, leading to an increase in the C/O ratio and noticeable enhancement in crystallinity. During catalytic fast pyrolysis experiments, the pre-treatment facilitates the production of oil fractions, achieving yields of 54.53% for total hydrocarbons and 39.99% for aromatics hydrocarbons under optimized conditions. These findings validate the positive influence of the deep eutectic solvent pre-treatment combined with ZSM-5 catalytic fast pyrolysis on the efficient production of bio-oil and high-value chemical derivatives..
