The past decades have seen increasing interest in developing pyrolysis pathways to
produce biofuels and bio-based chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass. Pyrolysis is a key …

Indonesia is the world's largest palm oil producing country. The oil palm industry (plantation
and milling) generates large amounts of solid waste in the form of empty fruit bunches (EFB) …

Leaching essentially removes metallic species from biomass and improves the quality of
pyrolysis products. However, common acid solutions, such as hydrochloric acid and acetic …

Pineapple peel waste was utilized as an unexplored source of hemicellulose (31.8±1.9%)
for value addition. Hemicellulose was extracted by an alkali-based method, where the peels …

Pennisetum purpureum is one of the most invasive perennial grasses of the Poaceae family,
which are abundant in south-east Asia including Brunei Darussalam. The pyrolysis process …

The aim of this work was to study the pyrolysis behavior of castor oil, corn starch, soy protein,
lignin, xylan, and cellulose. The pyrolysis behavior, gaseous product evolution, kinetics and …

Elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) and poultry litter are waste materials readily
available all year round in West Africa that can be harnessed for the production of biochar …

The availability and non-competitive use of elephant grass (Pernisetum purpureum) makes it
an excellent feedstock for the production of biochar for more beneficial applications …

Cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) were prepared from Napier grass stems via alkalization,
bleaching and sulfuric acid hydrolysis treatments and subsequently characterized by various …

In this work, the effects of heating rate on fast pyrolysis behavior and product distribution of
Jerusalem artichoke stalk (JAS) were investigated fist by TG-FTIR (heating rates: 20, 30, 50 …
