Hydropyrolysis of rice husk was performed using nickel-loaded Loy Yang brown coal char (Ni/LY) catalyst in a fluidized bed reactor at 500, 550, 600 and 650 °C with an aim to study the influence of catalyst and catalytic hydropyrolysis temperature on product yields and the composition of bio-oil. An inexpensive Ni/LY char was prepared by the ion-exchange method with nickel loading rate of 9 ± 1 wt.%. Nickel particles which dispersed well in Loy Yang brown coal char showed a large specific surface area of Ni/LY char of 350 m2/g. The effects of catalytic activity and hydropyrolysis temperature of rice husk using Ni/LY char were examined at the optimal condition for bio-oil yield (i.e., pyrolysis temperature 500 °C, static bed height 5 cm, and gas flow rate 2 L/min without catalyst). In the presence of catalyst, the oxygen content of bio-oil decreased by about 16% compared with that of non-catalyst. Raising the temperature from 500 to 650 °C reduced the oxygen content of bio-oil from 27.50% to 21.50%. Bio-oil yields decreased while gas yields and water content increased with increasing temperature due to more oxygen being converted into H2O, CO2, and CO. The decreasing of the oxygen content contributed to a remarkable increase in the heating value of bio-oil. The characteristics of bio-oil were analyzed by Karl Fischer, GC/MS, GPC, FT-IR, and CHN elemental analysis. The result indicated that the hydropyrolysis of rice husk using Ni/LY char at high temperature can be used to improved the quality of bio-oil to level suitable for a potential liquid fuel and chemical feedstock.
► The hydropyrolysis of rice husk was carried out in a fluidized bed reactor.
► Study the effect of catalyst and catalytic hydropyrolysis temperature on product yield and the composition of bio-oil.
► Inexpensive Ni/LY char was used as fluidized particle.
► Use of low pressure of hydrogen and uncomplicated system to reduce the cost to a great extent.
