  1. 21. Pyrolysis of Wood Chips : Influence of Pyrolysis Conditions on Charcoal Yield and Charcoal Reactivity

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Tobias Wretborn; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : At a steel mill, charcoal from biomass is a potential substitute to coal as a reducing agent in the Blast Furnace. The steel industry accounts for 5 % of the global CO2 emissions. Charcoal, being a renewable fuel, has the potential to mitigate the steel industry’s contribution to global warming. READ MORE
