Fast Pyrolysis of Palm Kernel Shell in a Drop Type Pyrolyzer

Fast pyrolysis of palm kernel shell was conducted in a drop type pyrolyzer. The influence of the reaction temperature (400, 450, 500, 550, and 600 ⁰C) and the biomass average particle size (0.325, 0.750, and 1.500 mm) on the product distribution and quality was ex...
