  1. 1. Waste-to-Energy : A study on Reaction Kinetics of Tropical Wood Sawdust

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Bertrand Asongwe Tita; [2016]
    Keywords : Tropical biomass; Thermo-gravimetric Analysis TGA ; reaction kinetics; pyrolysis;

    Abstract : The reaction kinetics of Iroko and Mahogany were studied using TGA. The pyrolysis process was achieved using six different heating rates of 2,5,8,12,15 and 20˚C. A 15˚C/min heating rate was used for gasification in steam at different temperatures while varying the concentrations of nitrogen and steam in the process. READ MORE
