Abstract

The volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted during the heat treatment of bamboo will seriously affect the environmental quality and pose a potential threat to human health. In order to research the effect of high concentration acid- alkali solution pretreatment on VOCs release during bamboo heat treatment, the VOCs content and composition changes of sodium hydroxide and zinc chloride pretreated bamboo during heat treatment were detected by thermogravimetric Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results showed that compared with the control group, sodium hydroxide pretreatment had little effect on the CO₂ content during bamboo heat treatment, but had significant effect on the CH₃COOH and CH₄ content, which almost disappeared, and the activation energy was reduced to 71.25 kJ/mol. The pretreatment of zinc chloride had little effect on gaseous substances produced during bamboo heat treatment, but the content of CO₂ decreased significantly, the CO disappeared, and the activation energy decreased to 102.65 kJ/mol. The total relative content of aldehydes was higher in the VOCs released by the control group. In the sodium hydroxide group, the relative content of alcohols was the highest, accounting for 31.01%, followed by phenols. The relative content of aldehydes decreased significantly, only 2.89%, which effectively reduced the influence of aldehydes. The VOCs released by the zinc chloride heat treatment group were mainly aldehydes, and the total relative content reached 71.54%, among which the furfural content was 63.60%, which was conducive to the specific recovery treatment.
