Sustainable processing of lignocellulosic biomass

Abstract

Biomass gasification is one of the effective methods of obtaining electrical and thermal energy. Thermal gasification is a simple and effective method for most lignocellulosic waste. The generation of combustible gases under such conditions has significant prospects both in the national economy and in a number of chemical-technological processes. The high-ash carbon residue remaining after thermolysis has shown its effectiveness as one of the important components of organo-mineral fertilizers. The results of field research in 2018-2019 with Moskito corn hybrid (Zea mays L.) and Mulan winter wheat F2 hybrid (Triticum aestivum L.) on dark-gray podzolic soil confirmed the high agrochemical efficiency of our proposed fertilizers. The introduction of Moskito corn hybrid organo-mineral fertilizer into the nutrition system improved the structural indicators of the harvest: in the experiment, the 1000 grains weight increased by 14.7%, the mass of grain from one cob – by 20% compared to the control. Balanced nutrition of experimental plants Mulan winter wheat F2 hybrid in the variant with the use of BG-II when sowing at a dose of 1t/ha and favourable weather conditions led to an increase in grain quality (protein content) to the 2nd class – 13.0% against the 3rd grade in control (12.2%).
