Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

Based on an analysis of experimental data on the pyrolysis of Baltic shale, a kinetic model of the process with allowance for the polydispersity of fuel particles, secondary chemical reactions, and fragmentation of the particles has been constructed.
