Machine learning prediction of biochar yield and carbon contents in biochar based on biomass characteristics and pyrolysis conditions

Zhu, Xinzhe, Li, Yinan, Wang, Xiaonan·2019·Bioresource Technology

Abstract

In the study, machine learning was used to develop prediction models for yield and carbon contents of biochar (C-char) based on the pyrolysis data of lignocellulosic biomass, and explore inside information underlying the models. The results suggested that random forest could accurately predict biochar yield and C-char according to biomass characteristics and pyrolysis conditions. Furthermore, the relative contribution of pyrolysis conditions was higher than that of biomass characteristics for both yield (65%) and C-char (53%). For biomass characteristics, structural information was more important than elements compositions for accurately predicting biochar yield and it was inverse for C-char. The partial dependence plot analysis showed the impact way of each influential factor on the target variable and the interactions among these factors in the pyrolysis process. The present work provided new insights for understanding pyrolysis process of biomass and improving biochar yield and C-char.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
