Slow pyrolysis of agro-food waste to produce biochar and activated carbon for adsorption of pollutants from model wastewater
… and oar hull) to determine their candidacy for slow pyrolysis to produce biochar, bio-oil, and gaseous products. Process parameters of slow pyrolysis such as temperature, reaction time and heating rate were investigated for food waste to obtain maximum biochar yields. Furthermore, the obtained …

Investigation of Volatile Products from Wood Pyrolysis
… to evaluate the influence of heating rates on pyrolysis products obtained from wood pyrolysis and to evaluate the influence of acid pre-treatment on pyrolysis products. Depending on the wood heating rates, pyrolysis can be categorized as Flash pyrolysis, Fast pyrolysis, and Slow pyrolysis. We …

Hydrothermal liquefaction for energy recovery from high-moisture waste biomass
… Scenedesmus biomass were compared against slow pyrolysis, an alternative thermochemical process. Biocrude oil chemistries from both processes were then evaluated against Illinois shale oil as a representative low-quality petroleum crude oil. While both thermochemical conversion routes …

BIOCHARS AS AMENDMENTS FOR SASKATCHEWAN AGRICULTURAL SOILS
… with little or no oxygen present, termed “pyrolysis”. Biochars derived from the pyrolysis of biomass feedstocks have proven effective amendments on highly weathered tropical soils. However less is known about their impact on temperate soils and associated crop growth. Moreover, there is …

Characterization and agronomic evaluation of biochar amendments in a midwestern loam soil: effects on soybean yield, soil nutrient retention, and leachate quality
… types: wheat straw biochar (WSB) produced via slow pyrolysis at 400 °C and a commercial wood biochar (WB) produced via downdraft gasification. Proximate and elemental analyses, ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, surface area estimation, and molar ratio assessments were used to evaluate carbon stability, …

Co-pyrolysis of torrefied biomass and coal : product evaluation and reaction modelling
… ratios and inverting its hydrophilic nature. Co-pyrolysis of torrefied biomass and coal has the potential to be an efficient route for converting biomass to bio-energy and bio-refinery products. For example, as a first step in the gasifiers of coal-to-liquid (CTL) industrial plants for the …
