The Influence of High Temperature Pyrolysis Melt and Lignin on Cellulose Pyrolysis Chemistry: A First-principles based Investigation
DownloadFall 2023
Lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis for biofuel production shows potential but is challenged with issues of bio-oil instability and low yield. To address these challenges, a bottom-up approach integrating reaction chemistry and transport within biomass particle during pyrolysis is crucial for...
