The large variations found in literature for the activation energy values of main biomass
compounds (cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin) in pyrolysis TGA raise concerns regarding …

This study presents the first attempt to focus on the cocoa shell pyrolysis in terms of kinetic
triplet, thermodynamic parameters, and evolved volatile analysis using the TGA-FTIR …

The kinetic pyrolysis is often studied as a global process (single-step mechanism), but this
method is inadequate since it does not adequately describe the biomass pyrolysis. In this …

In this study, the effect of structural characteristics of cellulose on its pyrolysis behavior was
investigated. The structure of crystalline cellulose was altered by ball milling (BM) …

The slow pyrolysis of recycled high-density polyethylene (HDPE) has been investigated in a
batch autoclave reactor at 430–490° C and reaction times of 15–60 min, with the aim of …

As representative among biomass feedstocks, Poplar fluff was chosen to analyze the
pyrolysis properties of this new biofuel. Thermogravimetry under inert (argon) atmosphere at …

In the last decade, the use of renewable resources has increased significantly in order to
reduce the energetic dependence on fossil fuels, as they have an important contribution to …

Cellulose accounts for the largest proportion of lignocellulosic biomass. Herein,
experimental and simulation studies are used to deeply understand the kinetic …

This study reports the role of pressure (0.1–4.0 MPa) and temperature (600–900° C) in flash
pyrolysis of palm kernel shell (PKS). The main objective was to study the extent to which …

This paper provides insights into understanding the physical and chemical changes that
take place during re-heating process of Poplar fluff bio-char derived by carbonization at high …
