Journal ArticleDOI
An overview of fast pyrolysis of biomass
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the design considerations faced by the developers of fast pyrolysis, upgrading and utilisation processes in order to successfully implement the technologies and provide a case study of the application of the technology to waste wood and how this approach gives very good control of contaminants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Liquid products from the continuous flash pyrolysis of biomass
Journal ArticleDOI
A second look at fast pyrolysis of biomass—the RTI process
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the characteristics of the more important fast pyrolysis processes, and the advantages and problems existing with present pyrolynsis reactors are discussed, with the emphasis on bubbling fluidized bed systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pretreatment of poplar wood for fast pyrolysis: rate of cation removal
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a preliminary study of the rates of removal of the indigenous alkaline cations in a poplar wood (potassium and calcium mainly) by an ion exchange process using a dilute acid.
Patent
Energy efficient liquefaction of biomaterials by thermolysis
TL;DR: In this paper, a thermolysis process for the production of volatiles for an external combustor or liquefaction of biomass solids in which specific and previously unrecognized conditions are employed is described.
