Description:
Biomass waste represents the promising surrogate of fossil fuels for energy recovery and valorization into value-added products. Among thermochemical conversion techniques of biomass, pyrolysis appears to be most alluring owing to its low pollutant emission and diverse products formation. The current pyrolysis applications for valorization of biomass waste is reviewed, covering the key concepts, pyrolysis mode, operating parameters and products. To date, existing types of pyrolysis include conventional pyrolysis (poor heat transfer due to non-selective heating), vacuum pyrolysis (lower process temperature because of vacuum), solar pyrolysis (entirely “green” with solar-powered), and a newly touted microwave pyrolysis. In microwave pyrolysis of biomass, the heat transfer is more efficient as the heat is generated within the core of material by the interaction of microwave with biomass. The plausible mechanisms …
