A predictive PBM-DEAM model for lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis

Pyrolysis is a promising and attractive way to convert lignocellulosic biomass into low carbon-emission energy products. To effectively use biomass feedstock with size distribution to produce biofuels, a comprehensive kinetic model of the process, occurring at particle level, is important. In this study, the population balance model (PBM)-distributed activation energy model (DAEM) coupled model is first time developed to predict biomass...
