By means of a thermogravimetric analysis coupled with mass spectroscopy, the catalytic effect of ferrous sulfate on the pyrolysis of African Palm husk (APH) was studied. Thermogravimetric data were adjusted to the distributed activation energy model (DAEM) with four pseudo-components. Ferrous sulfate had a strong influence on the decomposition parameters of the second and fourth pseudo-components of the DAEM, which are identified as hemicellulose and lignin, respectively. The profiles of the signal intensity curves for the selected m/z ratios were successfully modeled using the kinetic parameters obtained by adjusting the thermogravimetric data. It was found that ferrous sulfate promotes the formation of fragments of m/z = 64, 95, and 96, corresponding to molecules, such as SO2, hydrocarbon ions of general formula [CnH2n‑3]+, and furfural, respectively.
Mediante el análisis termogravimétrico acoplado a espectroscopía de masas, se estudió el efecto catalítico del sulfato ferroso sobre pirólisis del cuesco de Palma Africana (APH). Los datos termogravimétricos se ajustaron al modelo de energía de activación distribuida (DAEM, por sus siglas en inglés) con cuatro pseudocomponentes. El sulfato ferroso tuvo una fuerte influencia en los parámetros de descomposición del segundo y cuarto pseudocomponente del DAEM, que se identifican como hemicelulosa y lignina respectivamente. Los perfiles de las curvas de intensidad de la señal para las relaciones m/z seleccionadas se modelaron con éxito utilizando los parámetros cinéticos obtenidos del ajuste de los datos termogravimétricos. Se encontró que el sulfato ferroso promueve la formación de fragmentos de m/z = 64, 95 y 96, que corresponden a moléculas como SO2, iones hidrocarburos de fórmula general [CnH2n-3]+ y furfural respectivamente.
