Hydrocarbon and hydrogen-rich syngas production by biomass catalytic pyrolysis and bio-oil upgrading over biochar catalysts
Abstract
A renewable biochar catalyst was developed with high porosity, high surface area, high minerals and surface functional groups. It enhanced hydrogen (27.02 vol% in syngas) and hydrocarbons (42.56 area% in upgraded bio-oil) production in biomass catalytic pyrolysis and bio-oil upgrading. The biochar catalysts had good thermal stability and durability with less coking according to the thermal gravimetric (TG) analysis.

Biochar is produced by thermal decomposition of a wide range of carbon-rich biomass materials including woody materials, agricultural residues such as sugarcane bagasse, livestock manure, and remnants after moderate temperature (350-700 °C) pyrolysis and carbonification of biomass in a reactor with little or no available air.
“Biochar has been considered as a potential surrogate for activated carbon and is produced by thermal decomposition (e.g., slow pyrolysis, fast pyrolysis, hydrothermal carbonization (HTC), flash carbonization, torrefaction and gasification) [93][94][95] of a wide range of carbon-rich biomass materials that includes woody materials, agricultural residues such as sugarcane bagasse, 96 livestock”

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.
