Biomass fast pyrolysis is potentially one of the cheapest routes toward renewable liquid
fuels. Its commercialization, however, poses a multi-scale challenge, which starts with the …

Biomass pyrolysis is a fundamental thermochemical conversion process that is of both
industrial and ecological importance. From designing and operating industrial biomass …

Modeling of biomass gasification in bubbling and circulating fluidized bed (FB) gasifiers is
reviewed. Approaches applied for reactor modeling, from black-box models to computational …

Biomass pyrolysis is a thermochemical conversion process that undergoes a complex set of
concurrent and competitive reactions in oxygen-depleted conditions. A considerable amount …

Modeling is regarded as a suitable tool to improve biomass pyrolysis in terms of efficiency,
product yield, and controllability. However, it is crucial to develop advanced models to …

Biomass, a hydrocarbon material mainly consisting of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen,
and minerals, is considered an ideal renewable resource given its abundance, its lower …

Biomass pyrolysis is a process by which a biomass feedstock is thermally degraded in the
absence of air/oxygen. It is used for the production of solid (charcoal), liquid (tar and other …

Experimental and theoretical investigations indicate particle shape and size influence
biomass particle dynamics, including drying, heating rate, and reaction rate. Experimental …

Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) and low temperature pyrolysis (LTP) were compared on
the basis of fuel qualities of biochars obtained from the upgrading of raw biomass in the …

CFD codes are well equipped in the resolution of the gas phase combustion, however the
solid phase modelling still needs to be developed. The aim of this work is to implement …
