Oil Production By Entrained Pyrolysis Of Biomass And Processing Of Oil And Char
Abstract
Entrained pyrolysis of lignocellulosic material proceeds from a controlled pyrolysis-initiating temperature to completion of an oxygen free environment at atmospheric pressure and controlled residence time to provide a high yield recovery of pyrolysis oil together with char and non-condensable, combustible gases. The residence time is a function of gas flow rate and the initiating temperature is likewise a function of the gas flow rate, varying therewith. A controlled initiating temperature range of about 400°C. to 550°C. with corresponding gas flow rates to maximize oil yield is disclosed.
