TLDR
In this paper, the main products (liquid bio-oil, solid bio-char and syngas) were obtained from pyrolysis of animal fatty wastes, and the maximum production of biooil was achieved at a pyroleysis temperature of 500 °C and a heating rate of 5 °C/min.

Esterification, Distillation, and Chemical Characterization of Bio-Oil and Its Fractions

TL;DR: In this paper, crude bio-oil (CBO) was obtained from fast pyrolysis of waste cooking oil (WCO) under different conditions, varying the temperature and the residence time of the process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermochemical conversion of animal by-products and rendering products

TL;DR: The results indicate that fatty acids and fatty esters are the major group obtained in the pyrolysis of fat samples, followed by aliphatic hydrocarbons, and heterocyclic aromatic compounds, which includes typical products coming from protein degradation, is themajor group obtained.

Triglycerides-based diesel fuels

TL;DR: The main advantages of using biodiesel are its renewability, better-quality exhaust gas emissions, its biodegradability and given that all the organic carbon present is photosynthetic in origin, it does not contribute to a rise in the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and consequently to the greenhouse effect as mentioned in this paper.

Fast pyrolysis processes for biomass

TL;DR: Fast pyrolysis for production of liquids has developed considerably since the first experiments in the late 1970s as mentioned in this paper, leading to significant advances in process development and a wide range of reactor configurations that have been developed to meet the stringent requirements for high yields of useful liquids, for use as a fuel in boilers, engines and turbines and as a source of chemical commodities.
