Carbon deposition from biotar by fast pyrolysis of palm empty fruit bunch

This paper presents a technology to recover carbon available in tar vapor produced from fast pyrolysis of oil palm empty fruit bunch, EFB using porous biochar pellets by employing chemical vapor infiltration, CVI method. By combining slow and fast pyrolysis of EFB, a process was developed employing...
