Biomass Pyrolysis: A Review of the Literature Part 2—Lignocellulose Pyrolysis

  • Chapter
Advances in Solar Energy

Abstract

A normative review of the literature describing the products, mechanisms, and rates of lignin and whole biomass pyrolysis is presented. The role of a complex sequence of competing solid- and vapor-phase pyrolysis pathways is elucidated.

This paper is dedicated to the memory of Fred Shafizadeh, Professor of Chemistry and Director of the Wood Chemistry Laboratory, University of Montana.
