Study of product yields from degraded Meranti Woods for the low temperature pyrolysis process using static batch reactor / Noraishah Othman … [et al.]

The pyrolysis of Meranti wood was investigated in a static batch reactor at low pyrolysis temperatures 300°C,350°C and 400 °C. The compositions and properties of the derived gases, pyrolytic oils and solid char were determined with respect to pyrolysis temperature. Preliminary experiment was conduct...
