Kinetics and thermodynamics of microalgae residue oxidative pyrolysis based on double distributed activation energy model with simulated annealing method

Non-isothermal thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) at four heating rates of 10, 20, 30 and 40 K min−1 under oxidative atmosphere was employed to investigate the characteristics of microalgae residue oxidative pyrolysis. The double distributed activation energy model (DAEM) was used to analyze the oxidative pyrolysis kinetics of microalgae residue and the simulated annealing method was employed for the estimation of the model parameters. The results...
