Abstract

We evaluated the correlation between the biomass constituents and their kinetic values. To simplify the models and indicate the effect of each constituent, pure biomass components and their mixtures were used as biomass model. The experiments were set up based on simplex-lattice design. The pyrolysis of synthesized biomass was performed by non-isothermal thermogravimetric analyzer. Several kinetic models in the literature, including Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose, Ozawa-Flynn-Wall and analytical method were used to determine kinetic values for each experiment. The generated regression models and predicted kinetic values from those methods were compared. The results obtained from analytical model (for n≠1) showed a good agreement (R2>0.95) with those obtained from experiments. This study also provide contour plots for all cases in order to observe the behavior of biomass pyrolysis at different component ratio.
