Overview

This research demonstrates improved yield and quality of biofuels from date seeds using CTAB treatment, suggesting effective waste management strategies.

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore the effects of CTAB surfactant on date seed pyrolysis to improve yield and product quality.
  • Date seeds were pretreated with varying concentrations of CTAB (1-2%).
  • Pyrolysis experiments were conducted at temperatures between 300-400 °C.
  • The effects of particle size and surfactant concentration on product yield were analyzed.
  • The bio-oil and biochar yields were measured and characterized.
  • Bio-oil yields surpassed 50 wt.% at pyrolysis temperatures over 350 °C.
  • Higher biochar yields (>30 wt.%) were noted at the lower temperature of 300 °C.
  • CTAB pretreatment significantly improved product quality and reduced undesirable reactions.
