By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Energy & Ecology Business -- Investigators discuss new findings in Fuel Research. According to news reporting originating in Jiangsu, People’s Republic of China, by VerticalNews journalists, research stated, “Shengli lignite was sequentially extracted with aqueous NaOH solution, n-hexane, dichloromethane (DCM), isometric benzene and ethanol (IMBE), and acetone to obtain extracts 1-5 (E-1-E-5). Each extract was biotreated by an isolated fungus WF8 under the same conditions.”
Funders for this research include National Natural Science Funds of China, Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities, Jiangsu Higher Education Institutions.
The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from the China University of Mining and Technology, “The results show that E-1 is much more susceptible to the bioliquefaction (BL) than other extracts. The BL of E-1 proceeded via the cleavage of C-O-C and Si-O bonds to some extent, while most of the methylaromatic and -COOH-containing moieties in E-1 are inert toward BL by WF8.”
According to the news reporters, the research concluded: “E-1 has largely similar molecular mass distribution (MMD) to unliquefied E-1, but quite different MMD from bioliquefied E-1, further indicating that the BL of E-1 proceeded via biochemical reactions by WF8.”
