Pyrolysis Kinetics Of Biomass

The objective of this work was to evaluate the chemical kinetics of the biomass used which was sugarcane bagasse with parameters namely heating rates and chemical additives concentration. The chemical additive used for this experiment was phosphoric acid as it one of the best dehydrating agent to re...
