Combustion and gasification rates of lignocellulosic chars

TL;DR: In this paper, the state of the art of rate laws and kinetic constants for the gasification, with carbon dioxide and steam, and the combustion of chars produced from lignocellulosic fuels, including a brief outline about yields and composition of pyrolysis products.
Journal ArticleDOI

How does fire affect the nature and stability of soil organic nitrogen and carbon? A review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors suggest a concept in which char is a heterogeneous mixture of heat-altered biopolymers with domains of relatively small polyaromatic clusters, but considerable substitution with N, O and S functional groups.

Carboxylate-Rich Carbonaceous Materials via One-Step Hydrothermal Carbonization of Glucose in the Presence of Acrylic Acid

TL;DR: In this paper, the one-step aqueous route production of carbonaceous materials loaded with carboxylic groups using hydrothermal carbonization of glucose in the presence of acrylic acid is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reaction mechanisms and multi-scale modelling of lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass, and the individual reaction mechanisms of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin are initially described.

Characterization and application of chars produced from pinewood pyrolysis and hydrothermal treatment

TL;DR: Two types of pinewood chars, hydrothermal char (H300) and pyrolytic char (P700) from biomass-to-energy conversion were characterized and used as adsorbent for the copper removal from aqueous solution as discussed by the authors.

Carbonization of cellulose fibers—I. Low temperature pyrolysis

M.M. Tang, +1 more
- 01 Dec 1964 - 
TL;DR: The pyrolysis of cellulose up to 500°C has been studied primarily by the use of infrared absorption techniques on fibers and films in various stages of degradation as mentioned in this paper.

Cellulose char structure: a combined analytical Py-GC-MS, FTIR, and NMR study

TL;DR: In this article, the Curie-point pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (Cu-Py-GC-MS) was used as an analytical tool for characterization of the resulting chars.

Formation of charcoal from biomass in a sealed reactor

TL;DR: In this article, samples o cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and nine species of whole biomass are pyrolyzed in sealed reactors, and very high charcoal yields (e.g., 40% from cellulose and 48% from Eucalyptus gummifera) were obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterogeneous cracking of wood pyrolysis tars over fresh wood char surfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured wood pyrolysis tars for independent variations in temperature and tar-char space time, and showed that newly formed wood tars are very reactive in the presence of wood char.
