TL;DR: In this paper, a woody biochar monolith with ultra-high carbon content and highly ordered macropores has been prepared via one-pot pyrolysis and carbonization of red cedar wood at 750°C without the need of post treatment.

TL;DR: In this article, both isothermal and dynamic experiments at different heating rates have been performed in a thermobalance with the objective of determining the kinetic parameters of the products of the pyrolysis process.

TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical model for pyrolysis of Green River oil shale is developed from previous experiments on oil, water, and gas evolution and oil cracking over a wide range of pyrolynsis conditions.
Abstract: A mathematical model for pyrolysis of Green River oil shale is developed from previous experiments on oil, water, and gas evolution and oil cracking over a wide range of pyrolysis conditions. Reactions included are evolution of 5 gas species, oil, and water from kerogen, clay dehydration, oil coking and cracking, and evolution of H/sub 2/ and CH/sub 4/ from char. Oil is treated in eleven boiling point fractions in order to treat the competition between oil coking and evaporation, and to evaluate the effect of oil cracking on the boiling point distribution of the oil. The kinetics and product yields calculated by the model are compared to experimental results for pyrolysis conditions ranging from isothermal fluid-bed to high-pressure slow-heating-rate retorting. 31 references, 6 figures, 5 tables.

TL;DR: In this article, the behavior of wood at gasification temperature (800°C) was investigated focusing on the behaviors of the wood constituent polymers [cellulose, hemicellulose (glucomannan and xylan) and lignin (milled wood Lignin] and showed that comparatively stable primary tar from wood polysaccharides undergo secondary reactions including carbonization after condensation at the reactor wall with lower temperature than their boiling points.
