Absolute photoionization cross sections of two cyclic ketones: cyclopentanone and cyclohexanone

Absolute photoionization cross sections for cyclopentanone and cyclohexanone, as well as partial ionization cross sections for the dissociative ionized fragments, are presented in this investigation. Experiments are performed via a multiplexed photoionization mass spectrometer utilizing vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) synchrotron radiation supplied by the Advanced Light Source of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. These results allow the quantification of these species that is relevant to investigate the kinetics and combustion reactions of potential biofuels. The CBS-QB3 calculated values for the adiabatic ionization energies agree well with the experimental values, and the identification of possible dissociative fragments is discussed for both systems.

“…Biomass has been a significant contributor in achieving sustainable development goals (Triwahyuni et al, 2015). Over the last few decades, researchers have thoroughly practiced multiple techniques to generate energy from biomass and its related materials (Ravindran et al, 2015;Yadav et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2015). This achievement can be attributed to the main reasons like low cost and abundance e.g.…”

Abstract. Lignocellulosic biomass is one of the abundant renewable bioresources on earth. Its chemical composition, i.e., lignin hinders ethanol production and commercialization. Pretreatment processes are vital for efficient separation of the complex interlinked components and enhance the availability of every component, i.e., cellulose and hemicellulose. However, for the bioethanol production, a major barrier is the removal of strong lignin component which is highly resistant to solubilization and a major inhibitor for hydrolysis of cellulose and hemicellulose. Pretreatment of biomass is necessary to make it susceptible to microorganisms, enzymes, and pathogens. Consequently, for the ethanol production, pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass process is very costly. The initial pretreatment approaches include physical, physicochemical and biological methods. It found out that; pretreatment methods have a significant impact on efficient production of ethanol from biomass. However, extensive research is still necessary for the development of new and more efficient pretreatment processes for conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to ethanol. Present review article presents recent development on lignocellulose biomass pretreatment. We discussed the different pretreatment methods along advantages, disadvantages, and challenges for bioethanol production. This review includes benefits and drawbacks and chemical, physical, physiochemical and biological pretreatment along with existing problems. For the production of ethanol, this review will help researchers regarding selection, development and further planning of pretreatment for different lignocellulosic residues.
