TL;DR: In this article, the effect of temperature on pyrolysis products (char, non-condensable gas, and bio-oil) was investigated, and the results showed that cellulose is the principal source of carbohydrates and phenols are the basis of the biooil from lignin, while the bio oil from xylan mainly consists of acids, ketones, aldehydes, esters, benzenes, alcohols, alkenes, phenols, alkanels, etc.
Abstract: Fast pyrolysis of cellulose, xylan, and lignin was experimentally conducted between 350 and 650 °C in a tube furnace, and the effect of temperature on pyrolysis products (char, noncondensable gas, and bio-oil) was investigated. The yields of char, noncondensable gas, and bio-oil were quantified using gas chromatography and gas chromatography with mass spectrometry. The noncondensable gas mainly consists of CO, CO2, CH4, and H2. The bio-oil includes acids, ketones, aldehydes, esters, benzenes, alcohols, alkenes, phenols, alkanels, carbohydrates, etc. The results show that cellulose is the principal source of carbohydrates and phenols are the basis of the bio-oil from lignin, while the bio-oil from xylan mainly consists of acids, ketones, aldehydes, and phenols. The char yields for the three components decrease with an increase in temperature, and the gas yields and bio-oil yields increase with an increase in temperature, reach a maximum at a certain temperature, and then decrease after that temperature.

TL;DR: The risk analysis was performed to study the bioavailability and eco-toxicity of heavy metals in biochar obtained from pyrolysis of sludge of pulp and paper mill effluent treatment plant and it was observed that the leaching potential ofheavy metals decreased after pyroglysis and the best results were obtained for biochar pyroallyzed at 700°C.
