Development process for tar filtering from biomass pyrolysis

This paper presents a new approach for recovering tar produced from biomass pyrolysis process. Pyrolysis is a promising thermochemical process to utilize biomass to produce gas, char and tar. Tar is a vapour/liquid product containing carbon, and it is often found in producer gas. It needs to be reco...
