Mapping out the reaction network of humin formation at the initial stage of fructose dehydration in water

The formation of humins hampers the large-scale production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural(HMF)in biorefinery.Here,a detailed reaction network of humin formation at the initial stage of fructose-to-HMF dehydration in water is delineated by combined experimental,spectroscopic,and theoretical studies.Three bimolecular reaction pathways to build up soluble humins are demonstrated.That is,the intermolecular etherification of β-furanose at room temperature initiates the C12 path,whereas the C-C cleavage of a-furanose at 130-150℃ leads to C11 path,and that of open-chain fructose at 180℃ to C11' path.The successive intramolecular dehydrations and condensations of the as-formed bimolecular intermediates lead to three types of soluble humins.We show that the C12 path could be restrained by using HCl or AlCl_(3) catalyst,and both the C12 and C110 paths could be effectively inhibited by adding THF as a co-solvent or accelerating heating rate via microwave heating.

Effects of Fe3+ and Ca2+ on sorption of phenanthrene by Humin in karst soil,Southwest China

Humin(HM) is the main organic matter component to af fect the migration and transformation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs) in soil. The study on infl uence of the morphology change of inorganic ions on the adsorption of PAHs in soil and its organic matter is still rare at microscopic scale. In this paper, yellow soil humin(YS-HM) and lime soil humin(LS-HM) were chosen as samples, then Fe^(3+) and Ca^(2+) were added into samples to facilitate the precipitation by changing the existing conditions of ions, and the mechanism by which inorganic precipitation changed adsorption capacity of karst soil was analyzed from the microscopic scale. The results showed that the adsorption capacity of HM reduced with the inorganic precipitation increasing. The precipitation of Ca^(2+)and Fe^(3+) both reduced the adsorption capacity of YS-HM and LS-HM by 61.71% and 71.83% on average, respectively. The results of scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive spectrometry(SEM-EDS) and pore analysis showed that the HM porosity decreased after formation of Ca^(2+) and Fe^(3+) precipitation. According to the value of Freundlich parameter n, it may be because the precipitation or colloid of Ca^(2+) and Fe^(3+) fi lled micropores and covers high-energy adsorption sites of the HM. This research provides theoretical support for studying the PAHs migration and bioavailability of Calcium-rich in karst soil.

丙酮盐酸混合液提取土壤腐殖质组分的光谱学特征

采用丙酮盐酸混合液提取土壤胡敏酸(HA)和胡敏素(HU)组分,利用元素分析、紫外-可见漫反射光谱和红外光谱进行结构表征。元素分析表明,HA中C、H、N和S含量均高于HU,O含量低于HU。原子比分析表明HA的缩合度相对较高,分子结构相对复杂,HU的缩合度相对较低,分子结构相对简单。紫外-可见漫反射光谱分析表明,由于腐殖质(HS)的组成复杂,多种官能团互相干扰,HA和HU紫外-可见漫反射光谱无明显特征峰,吸光度值随着波长的增加呈下降趋势,且HA包含的吸光有机成分较多,化学组成较复杂。HA和HU紫外特征参数SUV254和E4/E6比较分析表明,与HU相比,HA芳香性较大,腐殖化程度较高。红外光谱分析表明,HA和HU具有相似的红外光谱,各研究对象特征吸收峰的吸收强度不同,其中开垦黑土20~40 cm和未开垦灰土18~37 cm土层HA的振动幅度较大,说明其包含的酚类化合物、含羟基化合物、脂肪族化合物和羧酸,以及含羰基的醛、酮、醚等化合物的含量较多。开垦黑土10~20 cm土层和未开垦灰土18~37 cm土层HU在各特征吸收峰振动幅度较大,说明其包含的酚类化合物、羧酸、脂肪烃和糖类化合物含量较多。红外光谱各吸收峰强度比较分析表明,开垦后黑土HA和HU酚类化合物、羟基官能团和脂肪族化合物等含量增加,而开垦后灰土HA和HU酚类化合物、羧酸和脂肪族化合物含量下降,表明开垦对黑土土壤有机质影响相对较小,并且在一定程度上增加了土壤有机质含量,而促进了灰土土壤有机质的分解。综上所述,丙酮盐酸混合液提取法为HS生物化学和生理活性的研究提供了新的技术手段,为合理利用土壤资源提供理论依据。

Extraction and Characterization of Humic Acids and Humin Fractions from a Black Soil of China

Twenty-three progressive extractions were performed to study individual humic acids (HAs) and humin fractions from a typical black soil (Mollisol) in Heilongjiang Province, China using elemental analysis and spectroscopic techniques. After 23 HA extractions the residue was separated into high and low organic carbon humin fractions. HA yield was the highest for the first extraction and then gradually decreased with further extractions. Organic carbon (OC) of the humin fractions accounted for 58% of total OC …

Effect of Humus on Activity of Mineral-Bound Hg: III.Effect on Leachability and Transfer of Mineral-Bound Hg Under Acid Leaching Condition

Effects of humus fractions (fulvic acid, brown humic acid and grey humic acid) on the leachability and transferring activity of five types of mineral-bound Hg were investigated. Under the acid leaching condition: fulvic acid could promote leachability and vertical transference of all the mineral-bound Hg. Brown humic acid could retard the leaching and transferring processes of CaCO3-Hg, Fe2O3-Hg, MnO2-Hg and kaolinite Hg but not bentonite-Hg. Grey humic acid could greatly enhance residing ability of the mineral-bound Hg in the soil column and restrain them from vertical transferring. The effect of humus on leachability and transferring activity on the mineral-bound Hg was closely related to its ability to convert the mineral-bound Hg into organic-bound form and the transferability of the latter in the soil column. The characteristics of the mineral-bound Hg in speciation were the internal factors that determined the extent and rate of the influence of the humus.

Characteristics of humin fractions associated with inorganic minerals obtained by NaOH,and NaOH assisted with anthraquinone extraction procedures

The differences in XRD patterns, elemental compositions, FT-IR spectra and TG-DSC curves of extract residues obtained by NaOH, and NaOH assisted with anthraguinone （AQ） extraction procedures were studied. The extract residues are mainly comprised of humin fractions associated with inorganic minerals. XRD analysis shows that there is no typical peak of organic carbon because those organic humin fractions appear as a highly disordered substance. The peak of quartz is dominant. The elementary analysis shows that assistant AQ in NaOH solution can break the link of organic humic substances with inorganic minerals. And aromatization degree of humin fractions obtained by NaOH is smaller than that obtained by NaOH assisted with AQ. FT-IR analysis displays that various groups exist in those two humin fractions obtained by different extraction procedures. There are some differences in FT-IR curves between two humin fractions. TG-DSC analysis shows that thermal decomposition occurs during the heating of testing samples. By contrast, the humin fractions associated with inorganic minerals obtained by NaOH possess a higher thermal decomposition range.

Adsorption mechanism of Cd(Ⅱ)by calcium‑modifed lignite‑derived humin in aqueous solutions

Lignite-derived humin(CHM)was extracted from raw coal in Heihe City,China,producing calcium-modifed lignite-derived humin(Ca-CHM)by Ca(OH)_(2).The physical and chemical performances of CHM and Ca-CHM were analyzed with SEM,^(13)C spectra and XPS techniques.The results show that Ca-CHM exhibited weaker aliphatic,more aromatic polar compared with CHM,which improves the adsorption capacity for Cd(Ⅱ).XPS analysis indicates that Ca(Ⅱ)has been loaded onto Ca-CHM successfully after modifcation.This batch adsorption experiments report the adsorption performance of CHM and Ca-CHM for Cd(Ⅱ).The adsorption process of CHM and Ca-CHM for Cd(Ⅱ)conform to pseudo-second-order model,which is chemical adsorption,and the adsorption data presented good fts to the Langmuir model.The maximum adsorption amount(Q_(m))of Cd(Ⅱ)onto CHM and Ca-CHM by the Langmuir model is 15.29 mg/g and 41.84 mg/g,respectively.Based on the results of SEM,^(13)C spectra,and XPS analysis,we concluded that the main adsorption mechanism of Ca-CHM on Cd(Ⅱ)was ion exchange of Cd(Ⅱ)for Ca(Ⅱ),static-adsorbed and surface complexation.Therefore,Ca(Ⅱ)can be loaded on the surface of Ca-CHM by chemical modifcation,improving the adsorption capacity of materials in aqueous solutions.

Catalytic hydrotreatment of humins into cyclic hydrocarbons over solid acid supported metal catalysts in cyclohexane

Humins are common undesirable sideproducts during many acid-catalyzed reactions in renewable biomass platform conversion. However, few studies have been reported to the efficient utilization of humins.For the first time, the selective catalytic conversion of biomass-derived humins into cyclic hydrocarbons with high conversion rate and selectivity is presented using a home-made Ru/W-P-Si-O bifunctional catalyst. The multistage polymerization structure of humins was studied through controlled experiments.Results show that the CAC bond network can be efficiently depolymerized at a mild reaction temperature of 340–380 °C, catalyzed by the cooperative catalysis of nano-Ru particles and porous strong Lewis solid acid. Particularly, 95.4% conversion of humins was achieved under the optimal condition with up to 88.3%yield of cyclic hydrocarbons. The detailed composition after liquefaction was also analyzed. This study paves the way for the efficient production of cyclic and aromatic hydrocarbons from furan-derived humin polymer through Lewis acid-catalyzed Diels–Alder reactions between furan rings.

Characterization of Soil Humin by Acid Hydrolysis

Studies were conducted to characterize soil humin by acid hydrolysis. Two humin samples collected from two different types of soil, namely chernozem and laterite, which are widespread over a vast area from the north to south of China, were hydrolyzed under reflux with 0.5M H\-2SO\-4 or 3M H\-2SO\-4 for 4 h. The results showed that \{25%-29%\} of organic carbon and \{46%-54%\} of organic nitrogen could be hydrolyzed by \{0.5M\} H\-2SO\-4; \{36%-40%\} of organic carbon and \{93%-97%\} of organic nitrogen hydrolyzed by 3M H\-2SO\-4. The C/N ratio in hydrolyzed organic matter is lower than that in soil humin and that in organic matter hydrolyzed by 3M H\-2SO\-4 is lower than that in organic matter hydrolyzed by \{0.5M\} H\-2SO\-4. The proportion of nitrogen hydrolyzed from humin is markedly larger than that from the original soil and also markedly larger than that from humic acid fraction. Only \{3%-7%\} of nitrogen in humin exists in a relatively stable form, which is not easy to hydrolyze. There is little nitrogen that occurs in the form of heterocyclic rings in humin. Incubation experiments showed that the newly formed organic matter can be hydrolyzed more easily.

土壤胡敏素各组分数量及结构特征初步研究

土壤胡敏素(HM)是与矿物质紧密结合的腐殖物质,具有碱不溶性及大分子结构的特性,并呈现不均一性,被认为是土壤中的惰性物质。由于HM的非溶解性和结构复杂性,目前国内外学者对于HM结构特征的研究还很少。对加入大量有机物料培养后新形成的HM数量及性质的研究尚未见报道。本研究选用风沙土、草甸土、黑土、黑土底土加玉米秸秆培养土为材料,根据Pallo分组法,将土壤HM分为铁结合胡敏素(HMi)、粘粒结合胡敏素(HMc)和不溶性胡敏素(HMr)三个组分;对自然土壤中HM各组分以及加入玉米秸秆后新形成的HM各组分的数量及结构特征进行初步研究,为丰富腐殖质化学提供基础性资料。实验结果表明:在自然土壤HM各组分中以HMr为主,其次是HMi,含量最少的是HMc。通过HMi和HMc的光学性质比较得出HMi的分子结构较简单,HMc分子结构相对较复杂,加玉米秸秆培养后新形成的HMi、HMc的分子结构比自然土壤中的简单。红外光谱结果表明,与自然土壤相比加玉米秸秆培养后新形成的HMi、HMc的脂族性最强,自然土壤中HMi、HMc的脂族性强弱顺序为:风沙土>黑土>草甸土。
