Mechanism of Depolymerization of Cellulose in Low Sulfuric Acid Medium. Kinetic Investigation and Stochastic Simulation (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 1994 in the subject Engineering - Chemical Engineering, grade: 3.7, Université Laval, language: English, abstract: The final objective of this investigation is to model the kinetic behaviour of cellulose during hydrolysis by means of stochastic simulation. Part I of this study will thus report the experimental determination of kinetic parameters to be used in the simulation. These were established from kinetic experiments on cellobiose hydrolysis and glucose degradation. Furthermore, both cotton morphology and outer layer are analysed and the effects of cotton wax on cellulose depolymerization are studied. Finally, the effects of cotton milling on both cellulose depolymerization and glucose yield are investigated and presented in this first part. Part II will deal more specifically with the stochastic modelling of these data. This simulation should be realistic enough to allow a representation of the effect of milling on the cellulose structure and its influence on acid hydrolysis kinetics.

Autor

Professor Zin Eddine Dadach was born in 1957 in the city of Beni Saf, Ain Temouchent, Algeria. He studied in a technical college of the city of Tilimsen, and continued to the Algerian Institute of Petroleum to obtain in 1980 his Bachelor's Degree in Refining and Petro-Chemistry. His Master's Degree is in Chemical Engineering which he obtained in 1984 from Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, New Jersey, USA. Being dedicated to knowledge, he pursued his Ph.D. Degree in Chemical Engineering at Laval University, Quebec, Canada, which he completed in 1994. He continued specialization in the field of Biotechnology in Japan, at Osaka National Research Institute, where he contributed from 1994 to 1996. Since 2005 he is on the Academic Faculty at the Higher Colleges of Technology, Chemical Engineering Department, Abu Dhabi, UAE.
