Thermogravimetric analysis of gasification and pyrolysis of algae biomass

Maxim Tsvetkov,

Abstract: In the present paper, the case of the brown algae Saccharina japonica from Aniva Bay (Sea of Okhotsk, Sakhalin Island) was investigated by a thermogravimetric analysis up to 700°C at different atmospheres. The elemental composition, lower heating value, ash content, and biochar yield of the algae were examined. The analysis showed that carbohydrates like alginate, mannitol, fucoidan, and laminarin were decomposed between 250-350°C, while proteins and lipids were burned out between 500-550°C.

“…Our calculations show that when growing brown algae Saccharina japonica in Aniva Bay for the purpose of decarbonization, it is possible to additionally sequestrate up to 49.5 thousand tons of C [86]. Successful cultivation of algae, their timely removal from the environment (before the destruction of the thallus) and the production of biochar from them with further industrial use [92][93][94] will increase the absorption of CO 2 from the atmosphere and have a positive impact on the carbon balance of the entire region. Experimental measurements of CO 2 fluxes in the area of mariculture farms have shown a noticeable photosynthetic absorption of CO 2 from the environment [95][96][97][98].…”
