Biochar yield prediction using response surface methodology: effect of fixed carbon and pyrolysis operating conditions by Sabah Mariyam (14150859)

“…The biochar yields are significantly affected by the fixed carbon content of the feedstock and the reaction temperature, and the experimental validation confirms the accuracy of biochar yield quantification. The model can be easily applied for further process flow modeling of biomass pyrolysis, only relying on proximate feed analysis, operating temperature, and heating rate.…”
