Effect of pre-treatment on the quality of carbon-infiltrated bio-char
Pyrolysis process of biomass produces tar that caused clogging of equipment in industry. A process is proposed to recover by infiltrating the tar vapor within porous bio-char and then carbon deposition occurred on the pore surface by chemical vapor infiltration process. This work focuses on investig...
