The high output of sewage sludge, which is increasing during recent years, and the
limitations of the existing means of disposing sewage sludge highlight the need to find …

Four principal intra-particle phenomena occur in a highly concerted manner during the
pyrolysis of lignocellulosic materials: heat transfer, mass transfer, chemical reactions, and …

Bio-oil derived from fast pyrolysis of lignocellulosic materials is among the most complex
and inexpensive raw oils that can be produced today. Although commercial or …

The hydrothermal treatment (HTT) technology is evaluated for its potential as a process to
convert algae and algal debris into a liquid fuel, within a sustainable algae biorefinery …

This work discloses how the pretreatment of wheat straw with acetic acid (AA) solutions
modifies the biomass composition, strongly affecting the pyrolysis product distribution. AA in …

Fast pyrolysis of biomass is becoming increasingly important in some member countries of
the International Energy Agency (IEA). Six countries have joined the IEA Task 34 of the …

This work gives an outline of current research patterns in bio-oil separation techniques and
their applications. Due to unpredictable nature of bio-oil, various challenges have been …

This paper reviews the literature related to the complex chemical composition and
multiphase nature of bio-oils and their practical implications. Over time, bio-oil forms …

Researchers have identified biomass feedstocks and pyrolysis techniques that produce
biofuels and chemicals from sources other than fossil fuels. Algae, organic solid tannery …

Pyrolysis oil (py-oil) produced via the pyrolysis of waste biomass is an alternative
sustainable source of both bioenergy and valuable biochemical. Py-oil produced from …
