Functional nano-catalyzed pyrolyzates from branch of Cinnamomum Camphora

الملخص EN

Cinnamomum camphora is an excellent tree species for construction of forest construction of Henan Province, China.

The diverse bioactive components of nano-catalyzed pyrolyzates form cold-acclimated C.

camphora branch (CCB) in North China were explored.

The raw powder of CCB treated with nano-catalyst (Ag, NiO, 1/2Ag + 1/2NiO) were pyrolyzed at two temperatures (550 °C and 700 °C), respectively.

The main pyrolyzates are bioactive components of bioenergy, biomedicines, food additive, spices, cosmetics and chemical, whose total relative contents at 550 °C pyrolyzates are higher than those at 700 °C pyrolyzates.

There are abundant components of spices and biomedicine at 550 °C pyrolyzates, while more spices and food additive at 700 °C pyrolyzates.

At 550 °C, the content of biomedicine components reaches the highest by 1/2Ag + 1/2NiO nanocatalysis, while the contents of spices and food additive components reach the highest by NiO nanocatalysis.

At 700 °C, the content of bioenergy components reaches the highest by 1/2Ag + 1/2NiO nanocatalysis, and the content of cosmetics components reaches the highest by Ag nanocatalysis.

The findings suggested that the branch of the cold-acclimated C.

camphora have the potential to develop into valued-added products of bioenergy, biomedicine, cosmetics, spices and food additive by nanocatalysis.
