Biomass for Energy Production
• Agricultural and
forestry wastes
• Municipal solid waste
• Energy crops
![Page 3: C. S. Lau D. J. Carrier L. R. Howard J. O. Lay Jr. E. C. Clausen University of Arkansas Fayetteville, AR 72701 Extraction of Antioxidants from Energy Crops](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110208/56649dc95503460f94ac02a4/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Energy Crops
• High biomass yields (~5 tons/acre/ yr)
• Able to grow on idle land and poor soils with minimal soil amendment
• Serve as income source for limited resource farmer
• Southeast is good region for energy crop development
![Page 4: C. S. Lau D. J. Carrier L. R. Howard J. O. Lay Jr. E. C. Clausen University of Arkansas Fayetteville, AR 72701 Extraction of Antioxidants from Energy Crops](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110208/56649dc95503460f94ac02a4/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Velvet bean
Examples
• Hybrid poplar• Arundo• Mimosa• Kudzu• Switchgrass• Sericea• Velvet bean• Castor
Sericea
Arundo Kudzu

If we use energy crops . . .
• Cost as much as $50/dry ton
• Their use might benefit from the development of alternative products
![Page 6: C. S. Lau D. J. Carrier L. R. Howard J. O. Lay Jr. E. C. Clausen University of Arkansas Fayetteville, AR 72701 Extraction of Antioxidants from Energy Crops](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110208/56649dc95503460f94ac02a4/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Antioxidant Extraction
• Potentially high value products
• Can be easily extracted prior to biomass conversion
• This concept is different from the biorefinery concept which concentrates on hemicellulose and lignin conversion
![Page 7: C. S. Lau D. J. Carrier L. R. Howard J. O. Lay Jr. E. C. Clausen University of Arkansas Fayetteville, AR 72701 Extraction of Antioxidants from Energy Crops](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110208/56649dc95503460f94ac02a4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Purpose
• Extract a variety of potential energy crops and assay for antioxidant potential
• Identify and quantify specific antioxidant compounds in selected energy crops
![Page 8: C. S. Lau D. J. Carrier L. R. Howard J. O. Lay Jr. E. C. Clausen University of Arkansas Fayetteville, AR 72701 Extraction of Antioxidants from Energy Crops](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110208/56649dc95503460f94ac02a4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Biomass Extraction
• Two grams of 0.3 mm biomass and
60 ml of 60 % aqueous methanol
• Blended at 40ºC for 1 minute in a common
household blender• After filtration . . .
![Page 9: C. S. Lau D. J. Carrier L. R. Howard J. O. Lay Jr. E. C. Clausen University of Arkansas Fayetteville, AR 72701 Extraction of Antioxidants from Energy Crops](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110208/56649dc95503460f94ac02a4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
ORAC Assay
• Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) assay
• Measures the degree to which a sample inhibits the action of an oxidizing agent and how long it takes to do so
![Page 10: C. S. Lau D. J. Carrier L. R. Howard J. O. Lay Jr. E. C. Clausen University of Arkansas Fayetteville, AR 72701 Extraction of Antioxidants from Energy Crops](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110208/56649dc95503460f94ac02a4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

present in all three major peaks in mimosa HPLC analysis showed that the compounds were flavonols

Conclusions
Hyperoside and quercitrin are the two major quercetin glycosides found in mimosa
Quercetin compounds account for 2.3% of the total dry weight and 85% of the total antioxidant content of
mimosa foliage

FUTURE WORK
• Investigate engineering aspects of mimosa extraction (solvent, temperature, solids concentration, interfacing with hydrolysis and fermentation, etc.)
• Identify and quantify antioxidants in other energy crops
• Investigate medical applications of the extracted antioxidants
