This study considers the feasibility of using highly oxygenated and volatile pyrolysis oils from biomass wastes as sustainable liquid fuels for conversion to a hydrogen-rich syngas using the chemical looping reforming process in a packed bed. Pine oil and palm empty fruit bunches oil‘EFB’were investigated with a Ni/Al2O3 catalyst doubling as oxygen transfer material (OTM). The effect of molar s...

The objectives of this study were to examine how recycle cup waste efficiently and effectively determine if can be converted into liquid, solid, gas value-added products by slow pyrolysis. characteristics potential utilizations the pyrolysis investigated. included effects temperature, heating rate, different feedstocks. yield oil derived from increased 42% at 400°C 47% 600°C, while char decreas...

Cork granules (Quercus suber L.) were slowly pyrolyzed at temperatures between 400-700 °C and under N2 flow. While preserving its structure, some cells of the cork biochar became interconnected, allowing such carbon residue to be used as templates for manufacturing ceria redox materials. The pyrolytic char morphology was similar that natural precursor. produced belonged Class 1 (C > 60%) pos...

Abstract The main source of fuel for domestic cooking applications in Sub-Saharan Africa is either locally available firewood species or charcoal produced by slow pyrolysis these species. However, very few studies exist that characterize and quantify physical properties, burning rates, peak temperatures, calorific values typical resulting fuels pyrolysis. This study evaluated the mechanical the...
