摘要：
This study aimed to evaluate the environmental impacts (i.e. global warming potential (GWP) and resource depletion (RD)) of the bio-based levoglucosan production process through fast pyrolysis of cotton straw via life cycle assessment (LCA). An LCA model consisting of feedstock transportation, biomass pretreatment, fast pyrolysis, bio-oil transportation, bio-oil recovery and levoglucosan extraction was developed. Results indicated that GWP and RD of bio-based levoglucosan production were approximately 2 and 32.5 times less than that of the petroleum-based counterpart. Sensitivity analysis showed that the GWP and RD of levoglucosan production were highly sensitive to plant size, hydrochloric acid usage, cooling energy, levoglucosan yield and bio-oil yield. The results of this research could provide a framework for robust decision making at an industrial level, which is useful for the commercial-scale production of levoglucosan.
